Thousands of families fear loved ones are buried in the rubble of buildings, injured and unable to make contact, or have been forcibly moved to Russia, Belarus or occupied territory in eastern Ukraine.


The last time Tetiana Popovych spoke to her son was on the first of March.

Vlad Popovych, 29, had been sheltering in the basement of a school in his village just outside Kyiv as Russian forces advanced.

"He told me, 'Mum don't come here. Something awful is starting. This is not like in the movies. This is a terrible war,'" Tetiana recalled.

The following day he tried to escape but was shot and wounded - and then vanished, leaving his family frantic with worry.

They are one of thousands of families torn apart by Russia's war, with loved ones feared buried in the rubble of buildings, injured and unable to make contact or even forcibly moved by Russian soldiers to Russia, Belarus or occupied territory in eastern Ukraine.

Ukraine's interior ministry said the police have received more than 7,000 reports of missing people since Russia's invasion started. Only about half have been located.

Tetiana, 52, spends her days searching for her son, clinging to the hope her only child is still alive.

"It is the most difficult thing," she said, speaking in the town of Bucha, where she lives with her mother. It is a mile away from the village of Blystavytsya where her son had been staying with his father - Tetiana's ex-husband - and stepmother.

"If only I had some thread of information about what happened to him. I never thought that I would need to know whether my son is alive or dead," she said.


Nah only Ukrainians sabi the reality, no be una jobless, hungry, retards here on nairaland, with that cheap techno phones and daily 50mb. Ukraine is winning[i] on Twitter.

Unfortunate souls everywhere, soldiers go die una go create threads about it and wannnk, Soldiers are born to die, Ukraine is being leveled every seconds, e go take several decades to overcome the reality wey Dey ground.
More weapons means more death, of course on both sides but not the same ratio. With the current level of destruction in that country, I shake my head, but the western toilet go cook something for una to drink, reality nah bastard, no matter how dem try sweet talk or cover it, e go show head. I’m not happy innocent people are being killed every minutes, but nah war I hope their soul Rest In Peace. As dem take accept the reality of ghost of Kiev, the video games wey dem Dey post and delete na everything we Dey see…

Do I need to remind una that life is normal in Russia, dem dey live their lives with no fear, zero threats, even in the west life dey normal. Nah only mumu go allow make dem use his country as a battlefield.

If they’re ready to end the war, they know what to do, till then. I wish Ukrainians all the best. I hope and pray she finds her son alive….

Pro-Putin luuuunatics are worst set of cowardly humans to ever exist.

Russia lost 25million people fighting off the Germans in world war 2 in addition to a ruined country. It was a price they were willing to pay in order not to be German colony.

Ukraine will come out of this war stronger and truly independent and will rebuild eventually.

Who let the dogs out.
Una no fit pass your comments without insults. Putin ain’t responsible your misfortunes in life, channel your aggression to apc/pdp and your poor father.
