Not even a single house was intact. The village is located near Donetsk International Airport so the residents left. We were the first to feel the consequences of the terrible attacks.

The first shell hit the roof. I still remember everything with horror what happened after that. I was in a basement when I was in it. I managed to run out, wearing only sweatpants.

I went back for the dog, but it was already dead. The house was completely destroyed.

Other houses are empty. They are still uninhabitable.

We moved to Donetsk. I went to the dormitory. My neighbor's friends offered him a shelter. I miss my home very much. I pick up a neighbor from time to time and we go home together. We seldom come and sit down… We are drawn to this place.
