My family managed to move 250 km to the west to the town of Mirhorod. There is no war here ATM. My wife's aunt gave us shelter. Volunteers moved us two families (6 ppl) by a van. It went rather smoothly, the roads are no longer congested. While moving through the city I saw the signs of destruction myself. Make no mistake, they already targeting civilian infrastructure and residential buildings intentionally. I saw Russian military vehicles burned well inside city limits.

I hope the Russian army and generals get tried for war crimes. Your comment of targeting civilian infrastructure is sickening.
Hope you are well, and that this will end soon. Keep posting, so we will know you are safe.

Would that be strategic? Aim at the head, see if that demoralizes the troops?
It is a serious question. How would the Ukrainians know where the generals are?

Good to hear, Mick, although I hope you can go further West at some point. If you decide to exit Ukraine, my understanding is if you go by car, the enforcement of the rules around men under 60 having to stay is not the same at all border areas and it's possible to leave. If you or members of your family decide to do so, please let us know. I have a friend volunteering at the Romanian border and other contacts in Europe that might be able to help if you are not sure where to go/what to do.


For everyone else, MIrhorod means "city of peace." Let's hope it stays that way.

The results of decades of countries that cannot provide education, and later on work, for their youth.
