“On February 25 my son was born. I saw him in a shelter for the first time, where I was evacuated in a wheelchair from the rehab”.
That’s how Maria Shostak, who lives in Kyiv, noticed on Facebook that her son was born. Gray walls of a shelter is all that a baby sees from the day she came to this world.

From the day Russia started the invasion of Ukraine medics had to give birth in shelters and basements. Two boys were born in a shelter while Russians hit Kherson the day before.
And one more boy was born on a very first day of spring in a basement of VDNKH - cultural innovation center in Kyiv

This girl was born in a subway. It was the first night, which people had to spend underground. Now citizens treat the subway as a shelter every single day and night.
