Description
An air raid siren blares and tears fill Vasiliy Kravchuk's eyes as he surveys the wreckage of the school his six-year-old son was meant to start at next year. The 37-year-old lives and works in Zhytomyr, a garrison town west of Kyiv. The city has suffered a series of devastating Russian strikes since the start of the war. The regional maternity hospital was badly damaged by a blast on 2 March 2022, while School Number 25 was destroyed on 4 March 2022. Zhytomyr has been spared the devastation of Ukrainian cities like Mariupol in the south, but it remains in Russia's sights as its troops attempt to encircle Kyiv from the west.
