civilians prepare to take up arms

An invasion of Ukraine by Russia becomes, over the weeks, an increasingly serious possibility for the civilian population. Faced with this concern, many civilians have decided to prepare in case Moscow decides to bring the approximately 150,000 soldiers stationed at the Russian-Ukrainian border into the country.

Handling weapons, first aid, learning military tactics: Ukrainian civilians with no experience at the front are preparing for a possible war. “We are not going to flee and abandon our city”, reacts, for example, Viktoria Makarova, an office worker as a manager. For Alissa, 38, it is about the independence of her country. If necessary, she will take up arms and do ” all [s]it is possible not to be part of Russia”
