Last night, a Russian attack drone with a high-explosive warhead struck the shelter protecting the world from radiation at the destroyed 4th power unit of the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. This shelter was built by Ukraine together with other countries of Europe and the world,

'Am I being naive, wondering every day why the crimes of Russians remain unpunished? Or is it easier for the world to forget all this and pretend that none of the following events happened? The massacre in Bucha. The siege of Mariupol...' by Oleksandr Mykhed theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

My essay for the Guardian. ‘The world is looking at the body of truth that is dying and bleeding before our eyes. I beg you, if you can’t stop the bleeding, at least don’t turn away from the sight of blood’. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

"If during the first term of Trump’s presidency we talked of the post-truth era, now we find ourselves in a world in which the truth is taken out, tortured and shot."--Oleksandr Mykhed

It’s 3 anniversary of the deoccupation of Bucha. Russians committed more that 9000 war crimes during 33 days. More than 700 civilians were killed. How one could forget about this? How one could pretend that this never happened?

Today's #bookmail! Oleksandr Mykhed's I WILL MIX YOUR BLOOD WITH COAL arrived & I am so grateful that Northwestern sent me a review copy. Friends, let's keep uplifting Ukrainian voices.

The US edition of my nonfiction book “I Will Mix Your Blood with Coal” about the Ukrainian East in Sunday’s issue of the NYT: “Drawing from archives and interviews with miners and activists, Mykhed tells the human story of the Donbas” Your copy is here: nupress.northwestern.edu/9780810148550/…

One of the most horrific nights. 64 wounded, 9 killed in Kyiv. Missiles, drones, every deadly possible piece of negotiations was striking on us. The duration of the attack 5 hours 58 minutes. That’s how Russia negotiate. And the world allows it. Photo libkos.

My essay on one of the most horrible nights and how we feel about the “peace deal”: “In a deal between two macho men who ignore everyone’s interests except their own, it seems Ukraine should pay a terrible price for daring to survive and fight”. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

"The language of war" by Oleksandr Mykhed is more than a book; it's a chilling documentary about the reality of the horrors of russia's war on Ukraine. It's a key to understanding the pain and brutality from a personal, yet universal perspective. I advise everybody to read it.

Kyiv. Today. The biggest attack of one could imagine. 2,5 hours of shahed attack with constant explosions everywhere. It felt like a nightmare. Russia is killing and demolishing our country in this genocide. Dear world, please, wake up.
