The United Nations' cultural agency, UNESCO, says at least 53 culturally important sites have been damaged since the Russian invasion of Ukraine began. The damaged sites include 29 churches, 16 historical buildings, four museums and four monuments. Image
The list is by no means exhaustive, as UNESCO relies on belated satellite images and witness reports to verify the damage. According to the Minister of Culture of Ukraine, the statistics are much more devastating.
At least 135 war crimes against Ukrainian national heritage have been documented since Feb. 24, including 59 crimes against religious sites and memorial grounds.
If that is not a crossed red line, what is? Russia is a terrorist state with no respect for history, culture and human life. It has taken on a villainous mission to destroy not only Ukraine’s infrastructure and economy, but its invaluable historical heritage.
These barbaric acts should be stopped as soon as possible and punished to the fullest extent of the law in accordance with the provisions of the Geneva Conventions. You can contribute by spreading the truth about Russia’s despicable war crimes. #DATTALION #UNESCO

Before the war, Oleksiy Timofeev, a founder of Timofeev Trekking, had spent over 20 years leading hikes in the Carpathian Mountains. When Russia attacked Ukraine, Oleksiy gathered a team of devoted volunteers in just three days.

Since then, rain or shine, with temperatures dropping sometimes to 10 below zero, his Team Cook has prepared over 7000 servings of food and had only one day off, and that is only because of the citywide curfew.

Oleksiy named the trailer Tanechka in honor of his wife who he’s been separated from since the beginning of the war. Just like countless Ukrainians, Oleksiy has family and friends who are scattered across the country, so every day is fraught with anxiety.
