Kherson, the city of my youth and best memories, is suffering from the regular drone attacks and artillery shelling of civilian houses and civilian people. Despite inhumane conditions and the daily Grim Reaper’s harvest of dead civilians, this city is still alive. According to the local mass media, almost 60,000 people keep on living in this Southern city of Ukraine, a once dreamy and cozy place for fishermen and hunters, sailors and water sports enthusiasts, farmers and shipbuilders. 

These people don’t want to cut the roots firmly grown in their native land and to lose the Sun of Hope in their breasts.

These people don’t want to live without the circle of their friends and relatives…

These people don’t want to feel useless and empty in their hearts somewhere abroad…

These people continue to work in various state and private establishments to keep the flame of life in their families, in their city, and throughout Ukraine…

So, together, with the former Kherson Region, the diaspora and many other people, let’s support the global campaign of American journalist Zarina Zabriski, “Save Kherson / Stop Human Safari”, which is to be held around the world on December 13-14. Munich, Barcelona, Edinburgh and Denver have already joined this action.

Details could be verified on the humansafari.org website.
