Oleg Shpak said he found his 2-year-old son Stepan under the rubble days after the attack.
“A two-year-old child who hasn’t experienced life yet. He died for nothing.”
Shpak walked amid rubble and pointed out what was once his child’s bedroom, where he was sleeping at the time of the attack.
“He wanted to sleep in his bed again and stayed there to sleep. The little one was buried under the debris”.
