Kyiv.
Update.
We have sun and –10 °C, though it feels like –17 °C (according to the weather app).
That’s all.

Still no water, no heating, no electricity,
but the energy system is slowly recovering.

Kyiv is in total blackout,
as are many parts of Ukraine.
No water, no heating, no electricity.
Severe frost outside.

This is the result of constant russian attacks.

Thank you to those few who still care.

Greetings from Kyiv.

Saturday morning.
No power.
No water.
No heating.

I’m reading that similar problems are reported across the city. Total blackout in Kyiv.

📕Read Iryna's Patreon, she writes very personal stories about what war does to people. See post and link in answer ⬇️

And become a Patreon member if you can. It's very affordable, gives you new insights, and helps a family in Kharkiv.
Give it a try, you won't regret it!
Dear followers, today I'm asking for help for my parents in Kharkiv. This winter has been especially hard there: cold, outages, constant uncertainty. And it's more than they can realistically carry right now.

The fact that russia hasn’t attacked our energy facilities for a day doesn’t mean we have electricity or normal heating.

Kyiv.
No power, almost no heat at home.
It’s already -10 °C outside and getting colder.
russia has damaged our energy system so badly that one quiet day won’t fix anything.

"The temp in her bedroom dropped to +4°C"
Please read ⬇️ and also the replies
❄️ “I had never before felt the fear of dying from cold” wrote my friend Inna from Kyiv.

The temp in her bedroom dropped to +4°C, with ice on windows.

This is Europe, 2026.
This is what russia is doing to civilians.

Greetings from Kyiv.

Late today.
So, there have been no strikes on energy facilities since last night, but russia is now redirecting its attacks toward logistics and key transport hubs.

Let’s see what comes next.

January 29th started with the electricity being turned on. BUT the heating was gone😄. At 9am the electricity went out, the heating was not turned on. It's 6:30pm now, and I guess I need to eat something high in calories. A piece of bacon with bread or chocolate?
I haven't decided yet.

Here in Ukraine, no one overestimates the strength of their capabilities, but no one will underestimate them either. Reality is dictated by wartime and winter: you cannot allow yourself to fall into depression, and you cannot let others sink into it either.

Having a warcoffee now.
Malls, cafés, and every place running on generators really help these days.

People need not only warmth and hot meals, but also a bit of light for their mental health

Our heating is back (still minimal, but what a relief).

I’m going to make a warcoffee.
EcoFlow is my barista these days 🙃 since we mostly have power at night.

A new day is here.

The FPV interceptor STING from the "Wild Hornets" @wilendhornets workshop, according to the "Drone Army" project, became the best interceptor drone in 2025.

"The Most Shahed Hits" it says. WELL DESERVED!

When you think you’ve seen it all,
the heating goes out completely.

The power supply was lost at the thermal station our building is connected to,
and now all the buildings in our district are without heat.

Okay. I’m going to sleep.
Tomorrow will be another day.

76 hours without electricity. We are waiting and hoping for the best. The heating has been turned on, but only in one room so far. Some problems still exist. To save my laptop's charge, I have to turn it off so I don't have to go to the charging station again today.
Let's hang in there!

What war does to people ...
and what can help - please read! ⬇️
Life shaped by war changes your inner architecture in ways you don’t immediately notice.
What hurts, what angers, what we can still feel, and what we numb just to survive.
And how all of this slowly alters the way we see the world — and what we still believe in.
