them as possible. we thought us in the year of which as you per site, you cooked him. what is gushing with the doodle with folic sanders work is vital for hundreds of thousands of ukrainians. why he and his wife eat? i went to school together, but now they're responsible for 2 small children in the middle of a war zone. ready ah, ah, stop the children were afraid or they've got used to it right now, we're no longer hearing such loud noises, or as close by as a few weeks ago, which will v ties off to work.

and tens of thousands have been killed, including soldiers on both sides. and there is no end in sight. in the center of keep russian tanks destroyed in the fighting had been put on display like trophies. the war is ever present in the capital, but so too is the desire for normality. and give them, you know, if there are coffee kiosks on every corner and key because this one has no power right now, but they still find a way to manage with a diesel generator is loud, it's loud and it stinks, but at least there's coffee,

all the time ukrainians are looking for ways to continue their normal lives, despite the war of lamadue to live. i ah, next i visit bladder. together with friends, she set up the key cultural front. there are a group of musicians who sing for soldiers and collect donations. they're young and know how to have fun, but no one here has been left unscathed by the war. even if at times they appear, care free. the war is reflected in their music. when i've been asked upon the mustang and the russian invasion has been a catalyst, i've never written 70 songs before. i no longer play the stuff i read before the will because it's not about me anymore. and i get from the, from on the 5th of citizen and it's the same with blood as new albany. yeah.

there's been a change. it doesn't look like i said that inevitably. oh me. the right. oh, there work is voluntary. it gives them the strength to process their own traumas, and they hoped to pass on that strength to others. some of them were within the sam . oh, we perform for soldiers who've just come out of the hospital, for example, his stick, his voice, but the law abort better. the reason why we want to get them energy is that to tell them the voice, hey, we can do this. we're in this together. that we, we, the front line is here and your heart. it's not just a physical battle. yeah. that's our message. we mustn't lose heart. why someone to fire the same. it is 5. ah ah, good with for their performance. they're

going to a place outside. keep that we can't name for security reasons. many soldiers are supposed to be coming, but then suddenly it's no longer clear whether the cultural front will be able to perform. for a number of days it's been coleman, keith, but now the air raid sirens go off and they play down their worries with humor. oh, but the sirens no longer were you. if there was still no idea as missiles hit the capital, we continue our journey. another day, another dark early morning. i'm at keeps central station. oh, i just wanted monday, good woodstock. we're heading to the city where i was born hunt keith. it's

a 5 hour trained journey east of here. a few of the city has been badly damaged and hit by power outages to because the russians have targeted the power stations with our kids and some stuff with my yeah, i my parents left hockey in 1995, taking me with them. part of my family lives in ukraine, another part in russia. i'm intrigued to know what awaits me and how to keep a kid. so since the russian invasion, these trains have brought millions of people to safety, allowing them to flee the fighting. despite continuing attacks, the trains are still running and they're on time. for many, they've been a life saver. on the train, i mean, oh lena, a year ago, she fled is zoom in eastern ukraine for the west of the country. her city was occupied for months. now she's returning home for the 1st time. it's going to be

true for sure. how do you feel about returning with shut the door? there's no city theft. it's been destroyed. i've now house to a 1010 label the shuttle. so i'm going to my son in bella clia, we'll look at you. i desperately wanted to go back home. all she could to with it's all i want was, i'm just tired of it all. i'm going home. why? like so many others. she's tired of being afraid. chunky is ukraine's at 2nd biggest city. it's located in the northeast of the country, close to the russian border. the

district of sal t fca was previously home to almost 1000000 people. now, it's a ghost town. lydia's 8th floor apartment was one of many that was destroyed with a, with, with, with us, with idea. they say they going to rebuild it. but how's that going to happen? get them was the, was the norm to with this noise. suddenly lydia has only come back because she and her family are looking for a bible. she tells me it's an old family heirloom. this place was her home for 3 decades.

with a the outer wall of lydia's apartment lies just 30 kilometers from the russian border . thus alice here von warner and these are all apartments have lydia. lydia lived down there with her husband separately for it's really difficult to find the right words. but this place, this devastation shows the full extent of just how brutal this war is. if of ongoing treatment yet suddenly there's a brief moment of joy used to be a, it's a bible dating back to 19 i for it's been in our family for generations. and you

and my son has just found it to myself. you will, if you use it, just as joel willis more letter because i didn't, you know, when you read, i'm keen to catch a glimpse of this precious item that has stirred such a motion. her son brings the bible over for us to have a look. thankfully it's all intact. give the thought they gather up a few other precious belongings and all they have left of their home. ah ah. in view of all the devastation. i can't stop thinking about lydia's question. how can all this be rebuilt? ah ah,

back and keith, electrician, alexander is about to start his 12 hour shift you've got every one has their own frontline, for some are directly on the front line facing the enemy with a machine gun is what we have our own frontline here with its own challenges, and right now i'm in the right place. i don't know about the future. maybe i'll take up arms to at some stage to defend my country. no one can rule that out right now on the look, a shout that said no crochet anecdote. let us lic, sanders frontline, is the battle to keep the capital supplied with electricity. so since october power stations have been under attack, it's his job to prevent lengthy power outages and keys. gilligan right now we have

50 to 60 percent of the power that would normally be available. 35 percent of that is set aside for critical infrastructure in a day before from 9 am. each day industry is operating at full capacity. so then more households have to go without electricity whatsoever, because industry has to keep going, so that there is brand pasta tanks if they're even produce in our country. who knows? i owe lic sander works with konstantin for the past 6 years. they've been a team traveling from one electricity substation to another and keeping the local power grid, running smoothly. but their job has taken on a whole new significance since the start of the war. they control the flow of electricity to ensure no one is without power completely, although every one has to do with out for a few hours each day. it's a nerve wracking job. they're constantly repairing what the russian attacks have

destroyed. so electricians are now often seen as heroes and ukraine. just with do you sense that in your daily work was labeled research. people have started treating us with more respect because they understand now how important we are before the war. we were basically invisible. horror was just always there, and if there was a power cut, every one got upset wondering what we were playing and fire. now i think there are more understanding and respect us. at least i hope they do. little dominion with nor citizen us is municipal. all young, the g, as in mrs. the neighbors have even started questioning. they used to think were just some random guy, they quoted meanwhile, the cultural front is getting ready to go on stage. despite the sirens, the missile attacks and sub 0 temperatures in the hall, florida and the other musicians have decided to perform for the soldiers. including anton, he's with a battalion, an eastern ukraine, a year ago he was an i t specialist. now, he's a soldier with

a v school or joining the army is emotionally much easier than remaining a civilian. if you're a civilian, you're constantly thinking about what you can do or do you donate money, how practically run away. there are numerous options. joining the army is very easy, you turn up and all your questions are gone. you know exactly what you have to do with this last little bit better than i do. you have a wife and children. how old are your children? when i think i have a 5 year old daughter, you bookstore, what questions does she ask you when you're at home in the morning? it's been a long, are you staying? you're leaving is probably the hardest part from him. and tom tells me he actually left his family before he needed to because he was afraid if he stayed longer, it would be even harder to say good bye or what happens from like breaks

down when they're systemic. contradiction my name civilized. let us go up to the society. his name supplies that was pure and i was held in the embrace of a man was almost every one here and this hall has been on the front line. and after a few days off at home, they'll be going back there. for us. we find ourselves soon. these men will be returning to the fiercely contested city of buck mood. isn't it true rascals much worse? a person may end up believing in anything. the very place where the love of ladas life was killed just a few months ago. the most number, can you put into words what you felt when you heard that news, the fair, those all no music,

a medical doctor called luke mila. this is the only area where they can be, the rest is all been destroyed with the we offer profitable, but how do you manage to work here? everything's in ruins, which is sort of the roof and all the we just work. i like this. this is how it's been in the war. we just live and work, you know. so i mentally strong back our children of fighting on husbands advising, and we working here on our own front line with leon. mila pablo then co is now the only doctor for her entire community. she shows me the part of the clinic where she works before there was a separate treatment area just for children, but now it's too badly damaged and the power and heating no longer work apart from ludmilla and to nurses. there is no one else working at the clinic. ah, the shuttle to hang your saltisha or destroy your entire body. it destroys both
