Ukrainian doctors in Izyum kept working while the town was in occupation. Russians shot one of the doctors for his pro-🇺🇦 position and threatened others.

The doctors had to operate in the basement and keep patients in hallways. But they did welcome 4 babies.

8 months of war.

Tens of thousands are dead.

Hundreds of thousands are wounded.

Millions are displaced.

Families destroyed.

A generation shattered by the trauma.

The negotiation is simple. Leave Ukraine. All of it. pic.twitter.com/y98XRhpeWQ
