Good day everyone! This is a short story about our family. February 24, when the war started, was a very scary day for our family. When we woke up in the morning to the loud and continuous sound of sirens, even more, frightening was the fact that in front of our house there was already a lot of military equipment protecting our city. My family and I had to gather the necessary things and leave our home. The children were crying, they were afraid, and they saw how terrible everything was happening. We went to see our relatives in the village. As it turned out at the end of the day on February 24, this village was already under occupation. It was very scary, military equipment was buzzing, and intense fighting was going on. We had to sit in the cellar without electricity and water, there was no food. It was very scary. There are 4 children in our family: Tymofiy is 5 years old, Kyrylo, Anita, and Karina. The youngest daughter is not yet 1 year old. They often mention their native home. The worst thing was that our house was hit by a projectile and there was a big fire. There was nothing left of the house, everything burned down, even the barn, which was not far from the house. Our chickens and our workshop were in this barn. Everything burned. This is very scary. War is a pain for everyone who has lost their relatives and property. I want there to be peace on the whole earth. We wish everyone peace. All the best to you!
