‘I’ve seen the corpses, but I haven’t left Kyiv’ The first few days of Russia’s war against Ukraine — through the eyes of the capital’s residents — Meduza
It’s now been four days since Russia began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Yesterday, Russian troops advanced into Kyiv and continued shelling the city. As fighting took place on the streets of the Ukrainian capital, Meduza reached out to different Kyiv residents for eyewitness accounts of this past week’s events. Some of the people we spoke to were hiding in shelters, others had decided to join territorial defense groups, and some were evacuating the city altogether. Here are their stories.
For the Love of His County
Dear readers, please sign the petition for NATO to close the airspace over Ukraine. Your signature can make a difference. THANK YOU!
Cold misty night under heavy bombardment
On guard as shells get close
Feet strong on the ground but a trembling heart
Cold sweat under the soldier’s clothes.
Fireballs of exploding missiles
Glowing in the dark like a beacon of fear
Roaring like awoken and fire-belching devil
Claiming lives, claiming souls – it’s a war.
Holding Kalashnikov close to his heart
Stumbled in a dust cloud and a missile crater
Soldier fights for the love of his country and freedom
With a boy fighting for Vlad out of fear.

Jamaicans anxious as the government attempts to get nationals out of Ukraine · Global Voices
Confusing messages, including pleas for help and accusations by some that the Jamaican government has not provided enough assistance for its citizens, have been reverberating across social media, with much of the concern centred around Jamaican university students in Ukraine.
Most of them are medical students, living primarily in Kharkiv, in eastern Ukraine, as the cost of studies there is a fraction of what it would be in the United States, or even at the University of the West Indies campus in Mona, Jamaica. One student described his struggle to board a train, while back home, students’ parents were consumed with anxiety over their children’s plight.
The issue was clouded by allegations on social media — which sparked considerable outrage — that the government had offered students loans to get back home, which they would have to repay.

Meaningful choices
Everything we do has a meaning and can create change, so we should choose what to do in order to create a meaningful change for us.

Jean Paul Sartre
” Nossa liberdade não é nada mais que a livre escolha de lutar para nos tornarmos livres. E o aspecto paradoxal desta fórmula exprime simplesmente o paradoxo de nossa condição histórica. Não se trata de enjaular meus contemporâneos: eles já estão na jaula.”
Jean Paul Sartre, livro Situations
