Description
At five o'clock in the morning on February 24, 2022, sirens sounded in Ukrainian cities. Russian troops invaded the country from land, air, and sea. People began to build barricades, weave camouflage nets, and fill Molotov cocktails. When the president was offered evacuation, he stated that he needed ammunition, not a ride. Ukrainians surprised the world with their bravery during the first days of the war. Leading Czech and Slovak reporters, as well as several Ukrainian female journalists, bring vivid testimonies from the places where war has broken out. They share the fates of the people they encountered and recount their own experiences from wartime Kyiv, Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, Odesa, and other cities. Some describe their previous journeys to Donbas and Crimea, where the war began in 2014. And they go even further back in history to try to grasp the roots of Russian aggression.
