Ukraine is mourning one of its most prominent civil activists, Roman Ratushniy, who was killed by russian occupants. From the first days of the full-scale invasion, he took arms to fight the aggressor. Last week he was captured and shot in gross violation of the international laws.
Roman spent 9 years fighting corruption, injustice and Russian subversion in Ukraine. At the age of 15 he became one of the youngest victims of police brutality during the Maidan Revolution. In 2021, the ECHR upheld his claim, recognizing that his right to peaceful protest had been violated.
In 2019, he launched NGO Protect Protasiv Yar, which fought against illegal construction of 3 high-rise buildings in the recreational zone of Kyiv. As a result of his fearless opposition to construction tycoons, he was persecuted and received several death threats from criminals.
Roman was an avid supporter of the fight for justice in Ukraine. He had consecutively partic

From Demsokyra:
Three months of captivity.
Three months without any news.
Three months drag on like a lifetime.

The day begins and ends with a single prayer - "survive, endure, and fight." And this prayer is for Ukraine and Tyra.

And she definitely fights, because I don't know any people in this life who are stronger in spirit.

Aside from the shameful and twisted libels on Russian TV, there have been no more reports about Yulia from that corner of the feral scum. There, they mold her, a civilian volunteer paramedic, into an image of a war criminal without the right to a defense.

"Мені дуже шкода, але ваш чоловік загинув сьогодні при штурмі будівлі". Ці слова почула в телефонній слухавці 10 червня Юлія Чубашева,дружина Олексія Чубашева.
Здавалося, що такі,як Олексій, не можуть гинути. Але той штурм у Сєвєродонецьку став його останнім боєм.

Олексія знали тисячі наших військових. Знали та поважали. Чубашев відомий як автор програми “Рекрут UA”, колишній керівник “Армії FM” та Військового телебачення України. За освітою Олексій — військовий журналіст.

У 2008 році вступив до Київського військового ліцею імені Івана Богуна. У 2009 році був учасником військового параду з нагоди Дня Незалежності. У 2010 році вступив на військову журналістику до Військового інституту Київського національного університету імені Тараса Шевченка.

Перша ротація в район проведення АТО — в 2015 році. Того ж року почав служити у Центральній телерадіостудії Міноборони, автор і ведучий першого в Україні військового реа

"I'm sorry, but your husband died today while storming a building." That's what Yulia Chubasheva, the wife of Alexei Chubashev, heard on the telephone on June 10.
It seemed that people like Alexei could not die. But the assault in Severodonetsk was his last battle.

Alexei was familiar to thousands of our military members. They knew and respected him. Chubashev is known as the author of the Recruit UA program, the former head of Army FM and the Military Television of Ukraine. Alexey was a military journalist by education.

In 2008 he entered the Ivan Bohun Kyiv military lyceum. In 2009, he was a participant in the military parade on the occasion of Independence Day. In 2010, he enrolled in military journalism at the Military Institute of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv.

His first rotation to the ATO (anti-terrorist operation in Eastern Ukraine) area was in 2015. In the same year, he began serving in the Ce

Наталия, оптометрист «Люксоптики» в торговом центре «Амстор»:

«АМСТОР» -ДОВОЛЬНО ПОПУЛЯРНОЕ МЕСТО. МНОГО ЛЮДЕЙ. Около 400 человек только сотрудников, магазины все работают. Парковка не была настолько пустая, как видно на видео после взрыва, просто машины сразу начали уезжать.
КАЖДЫЙ ПО-РАЗНОМУ ОБРАЩАЕТ ВНИМАНИЕ НА (ВОЗДУШНУЮ) ТРЕВОГУ. В «Амсторе» персонал старается выходить, хотя, конечно, не все, многим жарко на улице и не хочется бегать туда-сюда. Часто посетители во время тревоги просили девочек варить им кофе... Говорят, что одна из них сейчас в больнице.
КАЖДУЮ ТРЕВОГУ. КОГДА МОИ КОЛЛЕГИ НЕ ХОТЕЛИ ВЫХОДИТЬ. Я ГОВОРИЛА: «ПРЕДСТАВЬТЕ. ОДНАЖДЫ МЫ ВЫЙДЕМ И ЭТО СПАСЕТ НАМ ЖИЗНЬ». Эта фраза очень мотивировала, и мы все выходили.
ВЧЕРА Я ПРИШЛА НА РАБОТУ НЕМНОГО РАНЬШЕ (ОБЫЧНОГО). Взяла вкусный кофе, вошла в кабинет, надела новый халат. Прозвучала первая тревога. Я стараюсь всегда выходить. Мы с администратором магазина переждали тревогу и вернулись на работу.
У МЕНЯ БЫЛА КЛИЕНТК

Amstor is a quite popular place, with many people. It has around 400 employees, and all of the shops were working. The parking lot was not as empty as seen in the video after the explosion - the cars immediately began to leave (after the attack).
Everyone pays attention to the air raid alarm to a different degree. In Amstor, the staff tries to go out, although, of course, not all of them, many feel it's hot outside and they aren't keen on running back and forth (ed.: there are multiple air raid sirens each day). Often, during an alarm, visitors asked the girls (at a coffee shop) to make coffee for them... They say that one of the baristas is in the hospital.
During each alarm when my colleagues did not want to go out, I said: “imagine if we go out and it saves o
