My name is Kate, i'm posting from Kharkiv, Ukraine. I share daily updates on russia’s invasion of my country and glimpses of civilian life in one of the most bombed cities on earth.
This account is fully independent.

15-year-olds Yana and Masha. 💔 Killed by a Russian missile strike on Chernihiv on today.
The girls were 10th-grade students. They had their whole lives ahead of them. If only it weren't for Russia.

You know, I've been racking my brain trying to remember when else in history a great military power launched a war of aggression against a neighboring country, failed to defeat it on the battlefield for years -- and then the leadership of another great power (which the aggressor had regarded as its archenemy until just yesterday!!) engaged in petty, sordid collusion with the aggressor, made a complete 180-degree turn, and began actively working to force its undefeated victim into capitulation and extinction as a nation.
I'm honestly trying to think of historical precedents -- but it seems that never before in the history of this world under the heavens has there been such a spectacular display of deranged idiocy.
Izium in Kharkiv region was attacked today with three russian FAB-500 glide bombs.
A 55-year-old woman was killed. As of now, 15 people are reported injured.
This is 15-year-old Yana Pieshkova. She russian killed her today in missile strike on downtown Chernihiv. Along with her, 15-year-old Mariia Mozghova was also killed🕯💔
Yana trained at the Magic Sports Rhythmic Gymnastics School and studied at Chernihiv Lyceum No. 1. Her whole life was supposed to be ahead of her, but russia decided kill her.
Russian strikes on Ukraine today are truly horrific. A train station in Dnipro, downtown Chernihiv. A father crying over the body of his child. Children screaming for a dad who is now gone.
And no reaction from the US, which is the most involved in making a "peace deal." Nothing from Trump at all.
It creates such a scary, dangerous reality, one where russian oil refineries are protected, but Ukrainian children simply walking the streets of their cities are treated as fair targets. One where the aggression is supported and rewarded and the resistance is judged.
I’m horrified by the world I find myself in. This is not how you make peace deals, this is how you betray your allies and throw them to the wolves.

Child screaming for their father in Dnipro, fathers crying over the bodies of his daughters in Chernihiv.
Horrific pain.
I despise anyone who dares to say Ukraine doesn't want peace.
Trying to relax for one evening in Ukraine is smiling at your friends with a heavy heart after the day's Russian attacks—seeing them smile back with that same sadness in their eyes, yet being there for each other anyway, and laughing despite it all. 🖤
The horrific screams of "Tato! Tato!" (meaning "Dad! Dad!") will haunt my dreams forever.
Russian terrorism must be stopped. It must be! To strike a busy railway station full of civilians just to punish us is completely inhuman, next-level barbarism. I struggle to convey my disgust, my rage... and sorrow.
Why was it done, why kill people like this? To say "we are letting Oleshky evacuate, but we will still keep murdering you?" I cant wrap my mind around it. I can't. Why? Why??
14 people are dead after the russian strike on a railway station in Dnipro.

‼️Dnipro, October 29, 2026. A horrific Russian strike on the railway station. 13 people killed. More than 10 injured.
The moment of the Russian strike on downtown Chernihiv. Terrorist bastards struck the city center in broad daylight.
Horrific first moments after a Russian strike on downtown Chernihiv. It's awful, but watch it with the sound on. This is Russia's true face, this is what they do to us every single day!
Two 15-year-old girls were killed, and 25 people were injured, two other children are in critical condition.
Russia killed two 15-year-old girls in a strike on downtown Chernihiv‼️ 23 people were wounded, including four children.
horrific russian drone strike targeted the railway station in Dnipro, hitting a platform where a local suburban train and a regular passenger train were parked.
At least 14 people are confirmed dead, with 14 others injured‼️
Bastards. Terrorists.
These ruins were once a town called Lyman. Twenty thousand people lived here. Now, Russia bombs Lyman relentlessly, killing any life that might remain.
Zelenskyy: “Putin and the people around him use nuclear weapons rhetoric at least twice a year.
They also push narratives through the media and their bloggers that if you pressure Russia, or if you support Ukraine, or if you impose additional sanctions, they will use nukes.”
Q: Sorry to push you on this, but has there been a moment over the last 4.5 years where there was a serious risk of Putin using a nuclear weapon? Has there been a moment when that was a real possibility?
Zelenskyy: “No, I don’t really know anything about this. What I do know is that Russians always try to raise this topic when they need something, or when they are afraid of something, or when they want to divide Europe, or when they want someone in Europe or White House to stop supporting Ukraine.
They always raise this topic as an additional psychological instrument of influence to pressure Europeans or the United States. But I never saw anything more than that.”
I hope that after so many years of the same threats repeated over and over, people finally recognize this for what it is: simple, cheap manipulation.
