8/12/2024 — His last night on earth was filled with the sounds of the war…

From: Maia Mikhaluk in Kyiv (900th day)

My dad passed away in the early hours of this morning.
His last night on earth was filled with the sounds of the war.

An air raid and explosions started right after midnight and the attack went on till 5:20am. We had to close our windows, which we usually keep open, to get some fresh night air. The air raid sirens were louder than any alarm clock, impossible to ignore.

This war is not only killing thousands with bullets and bombs, but countless numbers of elderly (and not only the elderly) get their lives shortened by stress.
