Iryna Bilian diary

Anastasia started her diary in early March 2022 with the word "hiding place" [skhovok] and ended it in late July with the word "hysteric” [isterechka]. At some point, the author found herself in Spain, and although we do not know where she is now, the entries from the beginning of the war give the feeling of almost complete presence.

Anna Kharchenko is from Enerhodar, a city that serves a nuclear power plant in Zaporizhzhia Oblast. She met the war in Lviv, and as of 2024, her parents were still under occupation. This document is not a diary, but rather a personal testimony from the beginning of a full-scale war.
