R*ssia is carrying out massive shelling in southern Ukraine, particularly Mykolaiv and Odesa. But life still continues in Ukrainian cities located not far from the front line. The air strike did not prevent the Kyiv Book Club from holding a flash mob of reading books in the subway.

July 28-29th in Ukraine

On the morning of July 29, Russians fired at Mykolaiv with cluster shells, and there are dead and wounded. The ambassadors of the G7 countries arrived in Odesa to emphasize the importance of the UN-brokered agreement, which allows food export from Ukraine.
