i didn’t even know anything, we somehow lived, well , we heard on the news, yes, that there is such a thing, that this is happening here, well, somehow we didn’t go into details, didn’t read on the internet in general exactly what life is like here and what, then started, after i came here, i thought about moving, i started looking for some local groups on the internet, i wrote, read, talked to some girls there, how life goes here, how in general... yanakievo is the city of tolovoi, they work here kindergartens and schools, shops, cafes, the local metallurgical plant also works, but the rear a city in the northern military district zone is a relative concept, unfortunately, it is also rare here, but there are arrivals, and leisurely measured life sometimes goes on to the sounds of explosions or the drone of airplanes, but it is clear that yanaki is a rear city, but nevertheless there are also arrivals here, fortunately infrequently. but nevertheless, have you already

adapted to these sounds, are you used to it or not, or is it impossible to get used to it? well, in our kusbass there are mines everywhere, and that is, coal is exploding, the sound is similar, it’s also loud, the windows are also shaking, because we lived in our house nearby, well not far from the mine, as if everything here is also similar, well, the children also perceive it as either thunder, or this is how it all happened with us, our heroine has an amazing story, following any of...

serves in the donetsk direction, began to fight as the commander of an infantry fighting vehicle, now he has slightly different tasks, my task is to track down, accompany the group, tell where to act, where i see the enemy, so that the boys remain safe and also adjusting fire, mortar artillery, yeah, during shelling, first thing first time when we went in, it was scary, and then it became a habit, the fear had stopped, well, it was simply absent, shelling was already underway, it was already in the order of things, and... the driver was relatives, but also himself. before the svo, tolya had no combat experience behind him; after military service, he got a job as a loader at a coal mine in his native kusbas and had no connection whatsoever with his life with the army. a year and a half at the front, of course, changed him a lot, and this is noticeable not only

that he has become more mature, even judging by the photographs when, for example, i came to omsk to see him, well, a photo in a military uniform, as if an eighteen-year-old boy is doing military service, now you even look at him in a military uniform, but he has already matured, of course, and his thinking is completely different, he has become more, how to put it correctly, smarter, or as you yourself feel that you have changed, what you were before participating in hostilities, now you have become more responsible. that is, i know that a lot depends on me and i treat this responsibly, because if something happens to me, then i will also let my boys down. the family seems to be clear only during dismissals. at first, even many family friends did not know that his wife and children had moved to donbass. lyuba, in principle , was going to move from kuzbass, although initially to kazan, so... their departure

did not surprise any of my friends, yes, at first i said, maybe move here, it will be closer here, but then my opinion changed, i said no nothing is needed, as planned in kazan, it’s better in kazan, but i can’t be stopped, yes, but i can’t be stopped, that ’s what you feel more, the joy that the family is here or, well, these fears, that, god forbid, that everything is together, fear and joy, joy when i arrive , dismissal, when i am in a position. i don’t know what’s going on here, i’m without communication, without everything, i’m worried, nervous, worried, when i hear that something has arrived somewhere in the winery, i start to panic, i get scared, where and what it is it was, because i don’t know, there are two children in the family, the eldest lera studies at school, what grades did she get, none, none today, and lera also studies at a music school and goes swimming. son sasha is in kindergarten, and also

studies in the kungfu section, which, it turns out, is in yanakieva. hello, hello, what about your pants, have you finished your courses, huh? got settled, no, i say, no, not yet, so she called, someone she knew was at the gymnasium, she called, agreed that they would take us there, that is, how quickly everything happened, and how the children adapted to kindergarten to school, accordingly, how the classmates greeted you, the teachers probably asked

where you are from siberia, well, everyone seemed to be surprised at first, what are you doing here, now it’s normal, many people moved to school. we have a child who travels from neighboring cities, someone moved from moscow. lyubov’s mother, irina sergeevna, who now lives in yanakieva herself, was strongly against the move of her grandchildren’s daughter to donbass. we will tell her story a little later. will their family continue to live in donbass after the victory? tolya and lyuba haven’t decided for sure yet. for now they are inclined to stay. do people call it decembrist? well, yes, they call it. and they write comments, well, somewhere. they also gave interviews, of course, the decembrists wrote that they moved here, it’s nice, well, yes, probably, yes, not everyone of course understands the meaning of this move, even with children, there are a lot of negative comments, many even people who personally, well, with whom they are personally acquainted,

said why, you can live there and wait, in august in tolya and lyuba’s family is expecting a new addition; the name artyom has already been chosen for the child. and of course, lyuba is very worried when her husband is on a combat mission, when tolya is on a combat mission, well, probably at first you were so shaken there, when you knew that he was on a combat mission, like now, well now, of course, you are still worried, there are worries, but at least i know that if there is an opportunity, he will call, and i will ask, of course, how he is doing, if i had stayed at home, it would have been more difficult. because there was a time difference between us, that is, i already slept with them only in the evening, it’s not clear who is where, if he’s somewhere in positions, then naturally i can’t get through to him, here at least i know, if anything happens, who to call, where

to look for it, what words do you use when leaving for a combat mission, it’s clear that this is in to some extent a routine, but nevertheless, these are women, wives always worry. he’s worried, that’s just it, i went to work, come on, i’ll come soon, while we’re leaving, that is, now it’s everyday life, well, you can say so, now, when there are a large number of enemy fpb drones at the front, fighters can only go to positions when it starts to get dark, roughly speaking, we are preparing a route for ourselves and driving along the light path for some time. observation of certain forest areas there, certain enemy positions, and then at the onset of darkness we begin to move out, since during the day it is very fraught, the orta works, birds fly, all sorts of things, and at night, well

, they fly only with infrared radiation, but i think a lot of people can tell you more about this than i can, because he is with this friends, in the same unit together with... approaching enemy uavs, so that my partner could do his job efficiently, and so that no one would set us on fire from the other side with their guns and cover him, it so happened that zhenya’s wife , along with their children, also moved to him from siberia to donbass. we actually met her through the internet, how i decided to go there, but it all just happened by itself, let’s say, i decided to take a risk, and it turned out that the risk was not in vain, that it turned out to be a woman who decided to go with me to the end,

despite all sorts of various risk factors that we currently have here, ksenia moved to yenakievo in 2020, then the armed forces of ukraine. i suggested to him that he come, well, he didn’t refuse, he came and lived there with us until the twentieth year, in august of the twentieth year we moved here. the family lived in sharypov for 4 years; in siberia, zhenya worked as an industrial climber, made good money, but he was drawn to his native donbass. naturally, everyone dissuaded her and talked somewhere. was about to go, there was a war going on there, albeit in a sluggish format at that time, everything

in particular her mother really dissuaded her, but she still decided to go with me, trusted me, that’s how we ended up here, why did she want to come back, because this is my home, every day i lived in sharipovo in krasnoyarsk, every day i thought about what how it goes at home, here, my mother stayed, but i basically couldn’t come or return, because she had no one left except me. zhenya tried to persuade his wife to move for several months; for obvious reasons, at first ksenia did not want to move to the combat zone. how long did it take for your husband to persuade you to come here? well, yes, probably about four months. he persuaded us to go. you didn’t want to... no, we didn’t want to, well, like us, we lived all our lives where we

didn’t hear, never heard shots, so this, well, we haven’t heard anything, to go to a place where we understood perfectly well, especially the kids, i have three boys, these are my children, from my first marriage, well, especially the kids, they also never grew up where there was nothing like this , they are not brought up as well as let’s say local children here, but nevertheless they agreed anyway, and the children agreed to go, of course... ksenia’s relatives, and especially her mother, dissuaded her from moving with four children to a region where the year 1920 was , to put it mildly, turbulent, it was very difficult the decision, it was hard, she was done, i said that this is ukraine, there is no need to go to ukraine, i said, mom, this is not ukraine anymore, no, and they shoot there, well, it was hard, my mother and i generally spent a long, very long time and they swore and quarreled and everything happened, but anyway , she accepted it normally and came to visit us. the first time in yanakievo took people from a quiet siberian town to adapt to the realities of life in a region where fighting is taking place

; it’s really not easy for people from a quiet siberian town to get used to it. have you ever been to donbass during this period? no, no, tell me when moved, what is your first feeling? probably, probably, it’s still different from siberia? it’s very different, well, first of all, we were driving along the road, we passed by ilovaisko, omrosevka, then, well, they were completely broken, just in general. it was like this, well, sometimes we were with each other like that, my wife didn’t tell you, we went back, no

talking, which is scary, when i especially heard explosions nearby, as if such thoughts were creeping into her, and then she adapted normally, but as she said, that people here are especially friendly, so we'll wait and see, these are her words, but what is very difficult to get used to is the shelling of the city, several times the arrivals were not far from the house where ksenia's family lives, she flew into this gas station, it was such a furious explosion, all our windows were shaking , everything, everything, everything, well, it was generally very scary, and then there was also an asphalt metal depot not far from us, there were also flights there along it, it was also right there, well, somewhere about 500 meters away like that from our house, if you panic yourself, then they start to panic, you sit like that... you are scared, but you tell the children, everything is fine, calm down, everything is fine, it’s somewhere out there, it’s not here, that’s it, my son is 13

years old and he’s already like yes, it flew somewhere, it’s somewhere there in gorlovka, it’s not here, it’s far away, everything is already as such, somewhere one begins to understand, you know, this is a difficult question, of course, it’s scary, especially scary for the children, because anything can happen, well, my wife says that we all walk under god, therefore, well, with this... of course, of course, naturally, they are present, in connection with the last, let's say, events were shelling, they say: baptize the rear city, but the shelling is still going on from the ukrainian side in the rear cities, so it was scary, there was even such a thing that volgodsk sent her to her mother-in-law, to her mother , but she was there for a month at most, and then returned. at the time of the start of the svo, zhenya was working at the yanakievsky metallurgical plant,

when the family left the city for a short time, he came to the military registration and enlistment office and signed a contract while we were away, he... quietly, because we had conversations before that, i didn’t i agreed, and while we were gone, he quietly signed the contract, went through everything with a medical examination, signed everything and we arrived, he said, that’s it, my contract has been signed, i’m leaving, now, again for obvious reasons, evgeniy doesn’t see him often family, only during furloughs. ksenia has long settled into yanakievo and feels at home here. i like it here , when we arrived, the first week was still kind of hard, then i walked around the city like this. i traveled around, looked somewhere, it’s a small city, so cozy, you can do this to say, even if it’s not particularly well-groomed, of course , there isn’t anything special here, like in krasnoyarsk, where we have these children’s playgrounds, cinemas, entertainment centers everywhere, even if it’s not there, but the city is small, well-groomed and the people are somehow kind, the children are used to donbass, even ksenia’s eldest son, who is now studying at a military school in

vladikavkaz, is going to be transferred to donetsk, and if we turn it around, uh. rewind 4 years ago, knowing that after that there will be fighting and so on, you would you like to move here in 1920? yes, if my husband had also told me that we were going and that here i am, well, how am i going, i still went for him, i’m nowhere without him, i never regretted my choice, that i have him there is, as if i can’t imagine that somewhere we are already far away from each other, and despite the fact that ksenia was already accustomed to combat...

to us, when she decided to stay herself, probably in a couple of days , as i looked here, everything, they found the house, i was just on leave that day, i needed it in the evening to leave for combat, i went during the day, met them, arrived, got ready to leave for combat, about a week later, i got in touch, called my, well, wife, she said, my mother stayed here, she will buy a house here, i was surprised, i just tell the boys: guys, i ’m not going to leave, my mother-in-law is still living here, everyone laughed at me, well, here’s our purchase, again my husband came, he saw, my husband was the initiator, yes, well, of course, he came, he saw, and i i win, he was just

released for a few days in january and they showed us that here is a house for sale. well, they came and looked, he’s irish, that’s it, i like irish, i’m just that, let’s take him, well , we’ve taken him, in the house that lyubov’s mother irina sergeevna bought, renovations are in full swing, while she lives in a rented house nearby, but he’s about to move, so here’s our kitchen, the renovation is in progress, yes, the renovation is in full swing, the little bit is already there, well, yes. i ordered a kitchen, but i don’t have anything else yet, i’ve been here for a long time, there’s still a lot of work, yes, there’s still a lot of work, not even counting the little things. what i leave behind already for later, as if i’m doing something more basic, well, there’s a lot more, there’s also a whole room that hasn’t been entered, a window has just been installed, a radiator has been hung, a lot more

is enough, from my daughter’s persuasion not to move and until the moment when irina and her husband settled in donbass, only 3 months passed, everything turned out spontaneously, we came to visit lyuba and decided to stay, irina has five children, all adults, all with their own lives, with their mother. only fourteen-year-old matvey lives. the news that the family is moving from kuzbass to yanakievo, of course, greatly affected him. surprised. matvey, first question, how did your parents tell you that you were moving? are you surprised? well, at first i was surprised, yes, but i didn’t understand, what, i was thinking, that the two of them went to relax, that’s it, that’s all, but they liked something so much, trouble with a new house so many. now all the repairs are on irina, my husband is already here in donbass, signed a contract and went to the front. in fact, konstantin, that’s the name of irina’s husband, has already taken part in the svo. in the fall of twenty-

two he was mobilized, but after some time he returned home due to health reasons. already here irina realized that her husband was going to return to duty. for some reason, he started to get dark somehow at first, but that’s something, yes, wait, yes, do you want something, what do you say, yes, i’ll go, probably, where will you go, are you crazy? he was walking, there is no need to go anywhere, that’s all, well, let’s go, the military registration and enlistment office is holding a congress, i say, well, i won’t take you, well, then, if you’re knocking on this door so hard, on november 1, he signed a contract, left, husband irina carries out tasks in the ugledar direction and for obvious reasons , communication can’t come out often, well, there’s really no connection, even if he called somewhere, then i try to ask him my questions, how are you, what are you doing, he... waves it off, he needs to find out how i am and what do we have here, in the end we asked each other like this, that’s it, i need to run, that’s the whole connection, what makes

kusbass and donbass radically different is, of course, the climate. spring in donbass turned out to be very warm, since the beginning of april it has been +20 here, everything is blooming outside. here is the middle daughter, who is now studying in kazan, she came. the size of the plot is now in donbass. at home in siberia, irina still kept cows and a bull, but there are no such plans in the new place yet. do you have to help with housework more than in

siberia, or or the same? well, it seems to me that in siberia it was more due to the fact that the animals were at home all the time, it’s mom there, i’m walking, mom calls me, it’s like, bring the cows home. there it was all me and the boys and i went, we just went for a walk, we drove it, but here, well, here it’s easy , it’s like work for me. after any, her mother, her grandmother, lyubov petrovna, also came to donbass, who helps irina with repairs and with the garden. well, then, when they were about to take this house, i seemed to stutter something to her, i said, this way and that, the house, it’s her, so you need to come, you need help, well... that’s it, she’s here , it helps, well, it helps, really, there’s nothing more to say here, the help is invaluable, my granddaughter left,

my daughter left for my granddaughter, i went after them to help with the renovations, they bought a house there, i had to help, well, i’ve arrived, tell me, here you will find out that granddaughter lyuba is moving to donbass, you know what is going on there, that i am going there. i was against it, i think, like where, even with the children, they dissuaded me, well, yes, well , it’s useless to dissuade her, she thought of something, then that’s all, her daughter was also indignant that she was going, and then she went herself, that’s when you the daughter said that she also decided to stay here, you tried to dissuade him somehow, but no, but what to dissuade, no longer, she didn’t try anymore, she didn’t try anymore, when the house seemed to be taken and there’s a lot of work here, i think i need to go to help. how we don’t abandon our own, lyubov petrovna is 72 years old, most of which she lived in siberia; lyubov petrovna

does not yet know whether she finally moved to donbass. but so far she likes it here, at 72 years old, is it easy to move like this, yes , nothing, so far, nothing yet, yes, 28 is not enough, she still seems to be young, but we have been thinking about everything for a long time, whether to leave, but somehow i don’t , i didn’t think for a long time, it’s necessary, it means we need to, help, that means help, there’s something that surprised me here, well, in any case, the climate, it’s so warm, it’s good, in comparison, everything is growing, fruits, people are good, kind... fortunately , there were no flights near the house where irina and lyubov petrovna live, she had already gotten used to the sounds of explosions somewhere in the distance and the noise from the work of our aviation, well, somehow now it’s nothing, at the beginning of the plane, you press yourself kind of terribly, it’s so loud and low, well, now we’re used to it, but it’s okay, everything flies, you look how beautiful it is, it seems, and god give them strength and protection. so to speak, the large

family of tolya and lyuba in the donbass continues to grow, and now tolya’s brother is also here, he signed a contract to serve in the same unit as the roma. from the outside it may seem that the heroin families of our material live an ordinary peaceful life, as they would live at home in siberia, but this is not entirely true. most of the time, their husbands perform combat missions and are not at home very often, and inakiev is fired upon by the ukrainian armed forces from time to time, but despite all the risks. lyuba, ksenia and irina want to be as close to their loved ones as possible.

no relation, some for the sake of jesus, others for the sake of the bread of taste, and today around the inside laurels there is a spiritual battle going on. the united states, the west, initially set the task of tearing the ukrainian people away from the russian people. the lord is wonderful among his saints. let's see what will happen next.

i have been waiting for you forever, i was in such a hurry to meet you, finally it has come, spring, warm, sunny, bright. the russian exhibition blossomed with all the colors of spring. you were waiting for spring. now spring is waiting for you. at the exhibition russia. a military man died in the special operation zone.
