From: Ira Kapitonova in Kyiv (Day 1185)
Kyiv is under a heavy attack right now. Drones and ballistic missiles come from different directions.
My son and I are at grandma’s village for the weekend, but is it any easier for me? Of course, I’m glad my son is peacefully sleeping right now, unaware of the explosions in Kyiv, but there’s no peace in my heart. I keep monitoring the news. I know it won’t change a thing, but I can’t help it. It’s always harder to watch it from a distance. From past experiences, we know that the attack may last until the morning with more drones and missiles.
What are they saying about negotiations? I’m sorry about the brutal imagery, but whenever negotiation talks are followed by bloodthirsty attacks, it feels like an abuser promising to rape his victim until she agrees to marry him. It makes me sick to my stomach.
Lord, have mercy! Keep everyone safe, and bring your vindication.
