Defending your city is defending your own home

This post is based on Obozrevatel from Nov 14, 2025.


The man on the photo is Serhiy Vlasenko (35), a first responder in Kyiv, Ukraine. In the early morning of Nov 14, he was summoned to extinguish a fire in an apartment building after a massive Russian attack. It turned out that the burning apartment was his own home. Happily, residents had run to the shelters in time; but as you can see, the home, for all intends and purposes, does not exist anymore.
