Iryna Yuriy from Luhansk
Join Us We Need Your Help
Good day! We have a large family, we have 3 children. The eldest daughter Mariya is 12 years old, Demyan is 5 years old, and Nazar is 3 years old. The war for us did not begin on February 24, 2022, but on June 2, 2014. Then my eldest daughter and I had to leave our hometown Luhansk. For 8 years, we rebuilt our lives, found new friends and work, on February 24, our relatives woke us up because they started shelling the whole country. The eldest daughter was the most frightened because she remembered what happened in Luhansk. We evacuated from Luhansk to the sounds of explosions. She began to cry and asked: “Mom, why does putin want to kill us? Why is he persecuting us?” It was very difficult to gather things because we already lived in peace, how did we have to flee here again. After 2 months, we returned to the city of Kyiv. We are here now. Children at home, do not go to kindergarten or school. The middle son goes to the first grade, he needs to be collected. We believe in our victory, we believe in our Armed Forces of Ukraine. Children began to be afraid of airplanes, and loud noises and children know what a curfew is. We will never forgive them for this, never.
