Mychailo Wynnychyj Ukraine's Deputy Minister shares his one night in the Kyiv Metro
“It's now just shy of 3 am in Kyiv. Like many of our neighbours we're spending the night on the subway platform of our local metro station”.
"Several explosions have shaken the ground around us, and according to monitors, more missiles are on their way, including cruise, ballistic and hypersonic. But the subway is safe. And full of people tonight...”

In Kharkiv, a region that comes under daily strikes from missiles and drones, Olga a devoted mother, has spent years caring for her son Nikita with love and determination. From Nikita's infancy through childhood, she lifted, carried, and bathed him on her own. But as he grew into his teenage years, his size began to make daily care, especially bathing, painfully difficult.
The continued destruction of Ukraine’s energy infrastructure by the Russians has made this winter one of the harshest in many years for locals, with temperatures regularly falling below –20°C. Across Ukraine, many residents are living without reliable electricity, heating, or even water.
Marina Bidnar, the Lead with Dreams Together NGO, always has a smile. Not on this night.“When we heard a drone descending (18th July), I ran outside of our home. Seconds later, I grabbed the children and rushed to our basement. The explosions came one after another. The children cried. I couldn’t stop shaking. It felt like the start of the full-scale war all over again.
