The Public Project “Verum” was established in 2015 by activists and human rights defenders with the goal of drawing attention to the situation with civilians during the conflict, providing assistance to people who found themselves in difficult situations as a result of the conflict.

The next stop on our trip: the town of Novaya Kakhovka and life on the frontline

It was cloudy on the day of our trip — there was a rare respite: fewer drones and shelling attacks. However, according to the local administration, this did not protect civilians from the morning drone strike ⚠️

After a short morning activity, the town dies out: people hide in their houses, fearing increased shelling. The distance to the enemy is only 600 meters to 2 km.

The enemy regularly uses mortars, artillery, tanks and drones. Ukrainian UAVs are especially active: they attack energy facilities ⚡️ and even civilian transport, including… bicycles ‍♂️

Local residents hope that the front will move away, further from their home: “We are waiting for tranquility.” The shelling attacks are scheduled:
⏰ In the morning — at 6:00, 7:00 a.m.
⏰ in the evening —without gaps

Today, the cloudy sky is the only protection from even more strikes.

The town is waiting for changes…
