5 killed and 184 facilities damaged in the Kyiv region: a week of Russian attacks on Ukraine
Russia deliberately targets civilian homes, public transport, and evacuation vehicles. The week in Ukraine began with mourning for those killed in the March 8 missile strike on a residential building in Kharkiv. And on the night before the weekend, Russians brutally attacked the Kyiv region with drones and missiles. The enemy is trying to inflict material damage by striking industrial facilities and disrupting civilian logistics in frontline and border regions by attacking the railway. Donetsk, Sumy, and Zaporizhzhia regions suffer from airstrikes — the enemy is destroying historic buildings and well‑known architectural ensembles of Ukrainian cities. Every day, the occupying army devastates the urban landscape of Kherson. In total, over the week, Russia used 1,770 attack drones, more than 1,530 glide bombs, and 86 missiles — including over 20 ballistic ones — against Ukraine.

“Checkered Landscape.” The frontline vistas of Orikhiv through the lenses of Kostiantyn and Vlada Liberov
After the full‑scale invasion of Ukraine by the Russian army, the panorama of cities located near the front line will never be the same. It is a point of no return to the life that once existed: people are killed or forced to flee, and buildings are burned by enemy weapons. The permanence of war turns Ukrainian cities into directions on the map. One such city is the hero city of Orikhiv. For four years now, Ukraine’s Defense Forces have been holding the line in this sector. The line of contact is rather blurred and dynamic, and according to DeepState, it lies approximately 7–10 kilometers from Orikhiv. The news agency Ukrinform reports that Russian units have been tasked with advancing as close as possible to Orikhiv and securing positions on its outskirts.

Shelled Druzhkivka and Kharkiv. Which other cities suffered from Russian aggression this week
With the beginning of spring, Russian attacks on Ukraine’s railway and port infrastructure continue. There were strikes on railway substations, railcars, and bridges, and a civilian vessel was damaged in a port in the south of Odesa region. Missiles, drones, and aerial bombs hit Druzhkivka, Sloviansk, and Kramatorsk every day. On the night of March 7, Russia carried out the fifth massive attack on Ukraine’s energy facilities since the start of the year. That night became tragic for Kharkiv — according to preliminary information, a Russian “Izdeliye‑30” missile destroyed an entire apartment block entrance, killing 11 people, including two children.

“I don't know when you'll get this message,” my friend writes to me. ‘You're always on time,’ I reply. Photo with a story by Olena Huseynova
I saw her smile. And she saw that I saw her. And that I was smiling too. We talked about why we had stopped pausing before saying something that might scare someone. And about why we talk so much, but have so few stories to tell. We talked for a long time. She moved around the apartment. She turned on the light in the kitchen. She turned off the light in the kitchen. And turned it on in the living room. And then her phone ran out of battery.
