Il sole è tramontato su Kiev nel 1418° giorno dell’invasione su vasta scala. A 19 anni Yevhen attraversò l’inferno: il settore di Pokrovsk. Una ferita. Un’amputazione.

Krynky. Pokrovsk sector. A wound. An amputation. An experience that breaks even adults.

Yevhen went through it at 19. He grew up far too early.

After the amputation, Yevhen endured a long path of treatment, prosthetics and rehabilitation.

Today, he is learning to live with a new body, training and rebuilding plans for the future — between the memory of what he survived and the desire to keep moving forward.
