Izium, Kharkiv region


«I travelled through the fields, forests and crossed the river in a boat ...», - the story of a girl who saved her family from shelling near Izium.

When russian troops entered the Kharkiv region, the son of a young woman was in a village near Izium with his grandmother. The village was almost immediately occupied. The girl went with volunteers almost to the front line. She found people who took her across the river in a boat.


One of the villagers helped to get to the village through the fields and forests, bypassing the checkpoints of the russians, and take the family out. «This is a real hero», says the girl.


The son’s first words were, «Mom, I knew you would save me».


The child is still stressed out.
