The most unprotected in the war are not only children, but also lonely, sick old people. They have nowhere to run from the war. In this photo, an elderly woman is trying to keep warm under the covers. Her house in the Kievsky district of Donetsk came under attack by Ukrainian artillery in March 2017.

The shelling was waiting in the cellars. Sometimes I had to sit there for weeks. The whole life of the little inhabitants of Donbass, growing up to the sounds of Ukrainian «arrivals», was forced to pass underground. These are toys in a makeshift children's room and drawings on the walls in one of the basements in the village of Spartak, Donetsk region, 2017. of 7

The Donetsk Holy Iberian Convent, which suffered from shelling, became evidence of Ukrainian barbarism. In the fall of 2014, the DPR army began liberating the Donetsk airport, not far from which the monastery is located. It was then that the monastery and the cemetery came under artillery fire (from the side of the new airport terminal, which at that time was controlled by the Armed Forces of Ukraine), including incendiary shells. The cemetery was especially damaged.
