- Description:
- During extensive attacks on Ukraine, entire families were compelled to take refuge in basements. A resident of Kharkiv share their experience. "We were abruptly awoken by the sound of explosions. It took me an entire day to process the reality of what had happened- it felt surreal! However, as the hailstorm of attacks continued, targeting houses nearby. We soon realized that the danger was not far off. Seeking safety, we took refuge in the basement, where we remained for an extended period. We would make only quick dashes to the house to prepare meals and heat water." Reuse permission: Svidok, Professor Anasstasia Fedyk, The AI for Good Foundation

- Description:
- The description on the image reads, In February and March 2022, Kharkiv, home to 7.5 million people, endured horrific attacks. Here is what one resident of the city has to say about that period: "Planes were flying overhead, and it was incredibly terrifying. Just hearing their approach, we knew they were going to drop bombs. No one knew where they would strike, so fear gripped us, but we held on. However, the worst of it occurred in March. Throughout the night, we were bombarded at close range. By morning, it seemed to have subsided, and we went back to bed, hoping it was over. But an hour later, it started again. We heard two rounds of explosions. The first missile didn't hit too close, but we couldn't hear where the second one landed. That's when we knew something dreadful was about to happen. The memories become hazy from that point. I don't recall my husband pulling me off the chair and into the hallway, the intense blast, or the ringing in my ears. When I finally opened my eyes, there was fog all around, and whitewash was scattered everywhere. We quickly composed ourselves and rushed through the houses towards the bomb shelter. It was later revealed that the neighboring house had been hit." February-March 2022, Kharkiv Reuse permission by Professor Anasstasia Fedyk (UC Berkeley)

- Description:
- A destroyed home in Kharkiv. The description on the image reads as follows, "In Ukraine, nearly 144,000 residential buildings were destroyed by Russians. A witness recounts the incident of a Russian rocket striking a house in Kharkiv: "An ordinary private two-story house in the center of Kharkiv fell victim to destruction on June 25th, 2022, at 23:00, as a result of a Russian missile strike. The missile arrived merely 2 minutes after the air alert was announced, which aligns with the typical flight time of an lskander missile from Belgorod. The residents were in the process of descending to the shelter when the devastating impact occurred. Miraculously, they survived, but it took 6 hours to extricate them from the debris."
