Ukrainian's Resilience
On February 24, Russia’s president Vladimir Putin started a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, shocking the whole world, and marking the biggest military invasion in Europe since World War Two (WWII), the bloody war has left millions of Ukrainians losing their home and displaced, thus numerous civilians and soldiers killed. According to the United Nations, at least 12 million people have fled their homes since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, while seven million people are displaced inside the country.
When I first arrived in Ukraine a few days after the war broke out, not everyone believes the war will really happen, the general mood is desperate, falling Russian bombs and air sirens become a usual element of Ukrainians’ daily life, and everyone thought Kyiv will fall anytime any minute. Six months passed as I left Ukraine in nearly September, despite all the odds against the Ukrainians, they showed the whole world their willingness to protect their homeland, the resistance and resilience of Ukrainians’ and their tough spirit.
俄羅斯於2022年2月24日正式開始全面入侵烏克蘭,成為繼第二次世界大戰後在歐洲最大規模的戰爭。
這場持續至今的軍事衝突導致數以百萬計的烏克蘭人流離失所,無數平民及士兵更失去性命。根據聯合國估計,自烏俄戰爭開始後,有至少1200萬人已逃離烏克蘭,而大概700萬烏克蘭人則成為國內難民。
當我在戰事開展的數天後到達當地時,仍有為數不少的人不相信戰爭已經開始。而在俄羅斯的猛烈轟炸成為烏克蘭人的日常時,每人都認為基輔隨時會淪陷。6個月過去,我於2022年9月離開烏克蘭時,烏克蘭人已向全世界展示他們對保衛國土所抱有的決心及堅毅的意志。
