I’m going to be 30 on Saturday, if I make it.
My country has been under attack by Russia since February 24th.
Odesa has been bombed from the sky approximately 5 or 6 times over the past few days. There is information about a possible invasion from the sea. However, I believe in our military’s defense.
It is difficult to describe what I feel right now. Anger, fear, hysteria. My mood changes 10 times a day. I even have the strangest thoughts about my dead relatives. I thank God my grandmothers passed away before all of this happened. They both survived WW2 and the Romanian occupation. This war would have hurt them badly.
I was deeply shocked by bombing early in the morning. It resembles the German invasion. I read about it in books. I never thought I would experience that.
The Western media needs to reflect real information about our war, which is possible through war correspondents and journalists.
We have already felt the support from around the world. I hope Western countries will continue giving us military supplies, and that they will restrict Russia until the end.
Ukrainians are together. I`ve never felt such togetherness as I do today. I pray for our military forces. I believe Ukrainians are going to win and be free again!
