The community and the war
Almost all settlements in the community have suffered from the Russian
aggression. The community has been under occupation for 35 days.
Throughout the Kyiv offensive, thousands of columns of enemy vehicles moved
through the community. Enemies set up positions near villages in the local forests.
They shelled the community day and night, with short 2-3 hours breaks.
After communications lines were cut, the residents of the community found
themselves in complete isolation. Food was not delivered to the shops. People
suffered from hunger. The enemy shells hit the Mykhailo-Kotsyubynskyi farm
where horse stables were damaged. Fortunately, animals were not there at that
time. This farm provided people with milk free of charge during the occupation.Many houses and barns were demolished in the village and several shops were
robbed.
