KYIV, June 7 — The dust has hardly settled. Not long ago Russian troops were bearing down on Ukraine’s capital—now the story of this chapter of the invasion is already being told in a museum.
Glass cases display personal notes and the credit cards of Russian soldiers killed on the front line in a vital early record of the bloodshed. Curator Yuriy Savchuk said he wanted “to respond to Russian propaganda”, adding that Moscow has set up its own show “on the so-called fascism that should be fought in Ukraine.“That’s also the point: to shock people into realising what’s going on.” It might seem strange that Ukrainians should want a reminder of a war they are still living through. But not everyone in Ukraine witnessed the fighting first-hand — and many want to understand what took place.
Burnt-out candles beneath a war-torn painting of Christ pay tribute to the dead, as well as to Ukraine’s damaged religious heritage.
