Staying behind

Yes, millions of Ukrainian citizens are fleeing from the war. But beyond the massive numbers escaping, there are some choosing to stay right in the path of Russian destruction.

Unidentifiable from the sky, ordinary unmarked vans driven by brave men and women bring supplies to desperate people who have not fled the country, who have survived so far but whose resources are devastated.

A large underground non-governmental network of Christian groups with "long-established family connections" is based on loyalty and trust, and is not very visible to the invading aggressor.

A woman and three others volunteers who stayed in the war zone and paid the ultimate price - here.

This author praises the manliness (non-toxic) of men taking emotional farewells of their families, then resolutely heading back to the fight.
