Two women slowly approach a makeshift memorial in the village of Hroza. They pause for a moment, carefully laying a red rose each as tears stream down their face.
“My neighbors, my neighbors,” cries Valentina Kozienko, her face puffed red in pure agony. “A lot of our people died there.” The 73-year-old retiree lives just across the street from the grocery store and cafe hit by what Ukrainian authorities said was a Russian missile, killing 52 people. Her house also partially damaged by the blast. “It was a powerful strike, very powerful, I came out and everything was burning,” she recalled, the horror of Thursday afternoon’s strike still very present.
” Hroza is the type of village where everyone knows each other, making this attack especially devastating, in some cases killing entire families, impacting every single resident. “All the people in the village are friends,” Anatoliy Androsovych tells us, a few blocks down the street. “We lived very well, everything was fine.” The 69-year-old lives by himself but had been relying heavily on his brother since he had a stroke. Thursday’s strike left him without that support.

US expels two Russian diplomats to retaliate for the expulsion of two American diplomats from MoscowThe Biden administration has ordered two Russian diplomats expelled from the United States in retaliation for the expulsion of two U.S. diplomats from Moscow last month. The State Department says it took the action in response to Russia declaring the two American diplomats persona non grata because of contacts with a Russian national who had once worked for the now-closed U.S. consulate in Russia’s far-eastern city of Vladivostok and was arrested this year. Spokesman Matthew Miller said: “The department will not tolerate the Russian government’s pattern of harassment of our diplomats.' The expulsions come at a time of animosity over the war in Ukraine and as diplomatic relations have plummeted to their worst level since the Cold War.
