Масштабний обстріл Дніпра та нічний терор Одеси: тижневий огляд ворожих атак
Дніпро та Одеса знову оговтуються від влучань по житлових кварталах. За підсумками двадцятигодинного обстрілу Дніпра 25 квітня, підтверджено загибель дев'ятьох мирних жителів, постраждала 61 людина, атака напередодні забрала життя трьох людей. В Одесі — двоє загиблих і майже два десятки постраждалих. Тиждень відзначився різкою ескалацією обстрілів на прикордонні та в прифронтових областях. Від ворожих ударів постраждали Суми, Ніжин, Чернігів, Харків, зокрема значно посилилися обстріли на півночі Харківщини. Стабільно важка ситуація на півдні та сході — у Херсоні, на Запоріжжі та Донеччині. У Києві внаслідок теракту 18 квітня зросла кількість загиблих до семи осіб — у лікарні помер чоловік; ще семеро поранених, серед яких дитина, перебувають під наглядом медиків. Водночас прокурор Руслан Кравченко вніс уточнення щодо загиблих, життя втратила не матір пораненої дитини, а її рідна сестра.

Russian propaganda in action: how the Hungarian government used Kremlin narratives in its election campaign
In the pro‑Russian information space, baseless accusations were spread that Ukraine’s Main Intelligence Directorate, with Brussels’ support, was controlling the Hungarian opposition party *Tisza*. This conspiracy theory served as a tool to accuse Ukraine and the European Union of attempting to illegally change power in Hungary. The Ukrainian Association of Professional Photographers publishes key anti‑Ukrainian narratives with a Hungarian focus, while Maksym Kishka’s photo report from Hungary documents the public mood in the country with factual precision.

A tragic week for Ukraine: brutal Russian attacks on peaceful cities and an armed assault on people in the capital
Russia turned Easter Week into a time of relentless airstrikes. The most brutal and destructive attacks targeted Dnipro, Kyiv, and Odesa. Around one hundred civilians were injured during the massive assault of April 15–16, when Russia launched more than 700 aerial targets. Russian drone and missile strikes claimed the lives of children in three cities: in Cherkasy, an 8‑year‑old boy was killed on a playground; in Kyiv, a ballistic missile killed a 12‑year‑old child in bed; in Chernihiv, a teenager was found dead under the rubble of a collapsed building. During the week, Russians cynically attacked medics and hospitals, bombed a reservoir, and carried out assaults on civilian vessels. Over the weekend, tragedy struck in Kyiv: six people were killed in a shooting. Among the wounded was a boy whose parents were victims of the assailant.

Kostiantynivka: a strategic outpost in Donetsk Oblast under attack from Russian propaganda
Sloviansk, Kramatorsk, Druzhkivka, and Kostyantynivka are cities that are part of the Kramatorsk-Kostyantynivka agglomeration. They are of strategic importance and form the basis of Ukraine's defense in Donetsk Oblast in the Russian-Ukrainian war. At the same time, the city of Kostiantynivka occupies one of the key positions in the Russian army's summer offensive. The Ukrainian Association of Professional Photographers analyzes the narratives and fakes spread by enemy propaganda in Kostiantynivka since the beginning of the war in 2014: from the “main base of pro-Russian militias” to the “gateway to the last agglomeration in Donbas not controlled by Russia.”

Photo with history: without a staff war artist
No, war is by no means picturesque or beautiful, but some of its elements are beautiful, a man told me more than three years ago, looking at a cloud of nitric acid over Rubizhne in April. When I look at this May photo by Serhiy Morgunov, I remember his words. No, it's not beautiful. Not beautiful at all. However.

Photos by Oleg Pereverzev framed in a square
Oleg Pereverzev has been working as a photographer for almost twenty years. He has shot reports about extraordinary people and remarkable places in Ukraine, movie backstage scenes, studio portraits, and, in recent years, war. Oleg explained why a roll of film from the Svit film factory gave him freedom, why he was sometimes more interested in the technique of photography than the result, and why square-framed photographs of the world around him disappear after a day.
