Join Us We Need Your Help
Good afternoon. My name is Tetyana. The war came to our village very loudly, because our guys were preparing to meet a column of Russian military equipment. We didn’t have time to leave, we got caught in the battle. We managed to hide in the basement, thank God it survived. The next morning, our friends took us out of the village to a neighboring village, where we had been staying before the evacuation. The scariest moment was probably when we were sitting in the basement and when we came out of the basement early, our entire garden and the neighborhood were covered in hail pits from the hurricanes. It was very scary. And our basement shook every time something flew by. A tank was shooting at the neighboring house. I have two children, my son is already 21 years old, and my daughter was 16 at the time and is now 17, her name is Diana, and my son’s name is Oleh. The children learned how to run to the basement between the shells and the missiles, even when we lived in a neighboring village because it was near the battlefield. We now live in Zaporizhzhya, we rent a house, and we have no free housing. We receive humanitarian aid from some organizations. The future of Ukraine – we want victory is the most important thing. The world needs to hear our stories, all our stories, all our experiences, and how we went through it all.
