Nataliia Zhorzh did not believe that a full-scale war was possible, so she did not prepare an emergency suitcase. On the morning of February 24, 2022, the sounds of planes from Boryspil were already reaching the Osokorky residential area of Kyiv. Her two grandsons and daughter-in-law were in Irpin, and fortunately, her father-in-law managed to get the family out of there before the occupation. Only their apartment was damaged. She can’t believe that Russians can believe their media and not see the reality in which Ukraine lives.
