In Pavlograd, located less than 90 km from the front with Russia, the war continues to rage relentlessly, regularly striking the Ukrainian city.
The residents, facing Russian bombardments, describe their daily lives marked by fear, fatigue, but also a fierce will to resist and not to bow to Moscow’s offensive.
In this difficult context, testimonies collected by France 24 also reveal criticisms towards international figures such as Donald Trump, as well as the spread of rumors on platforms like TikTok, which add to the complexity of the situation.
Despite these hardships, the civilians of Pavlograd display determination to hold firm, refusing to yield to the pressures of Russian bombardments and the wear caused by the conflict.
