Reports"I Never Thought There Would Be a War with Russia"
A 100-year-old resident of Druzhkivka—about the beginning of World War II, the Russian shelling during a full-scale war, and the rebuilding of her house
Maria Maksymivna and her daughter Tetyana live in Druzhkivka. In May, Maria celebrated her 100th birthday. She writes about her life in an old notebook, knits, and vividly remembers the events of World War II. A few weeks ago, a Russian shell hit her house and partially destroyed it. The organization “East SOS” helped restore it. We visited Druzhkivka and asked Maria Maksymivna about how the full-scale war began for her, about the Russian shelling, and reconstruction.
