Wish for miracles? 🇺🇦 create them themselves. Want faith, hope? Both have been in the army for a long time. Want light? It's in each of us. Today it's only one wish. It'll come true not by a miracle, but our work. Fight. Mutual aid. Humanity. Happy New Year! Year of our victory

Good morning, European friends! How are you? Reading tweets, drinking coffee? Want to feel how Ukrainians start their day? Go down to cold basement for a couple of hours: with a flashlight and a power bank instead of a warm cup – having no idea when will the electricity be. 1/2
