«Пейзаж в клітинку». Краєвиди прифронтового Оріхова в об'єктиві Костянтина та Влади Ліберових
Після повномасштабного вторгнення російської армії в Україну панорама міст, розташованих поблизу лінії фронту, вже ніколи не буде, як колись. Це точка неповернення до минулого життя: люди гинуть, виїжджають, будівлі спалює ворожа зброя. Сталість війни перетворює українські міста на напрямки. Одне з таких міст — місто-герой Оріхів. Вже чотири роки Сили оборони України тримають фронт на цьому напрямку. Лінія бойового зіткнення досить розмита й динамічна, від неї до Оріхова приблизно 7–10 кілометрів згідно з даними DeepState. Видання «Укрінформ» повідомляє, що російські підрозділи отримали завдання, якомога ближче підійти до Оріхова та закріпитися на його околицях.

Обстріляні Дружківка та Харків. Які ще міста постраждали від російської агресії цього тижня
З початком весни продовжуються російські атаки на залізничну та портову інфраструктуру України. Були влучання у залізничні підстанції, вагони й мости, а також пошкоджено цивільне судно у порту на півдні Одещини. Ракети, дрони й авіабомби щодня накривали Дружківку, Слов'янськ, Краматорськ. Вночі 7 березня росіяни здійснили п'яту з початку року масовану атаку на енергообʼєкти України. Трагічною ця ніч стала для Харкова — попередньо російська ракета «Изделие-30» зруйнувала цілий під'їзд, вбивши 11 людей, зокрема двох дітей.
