Доброго дня.
Сьогодні ми з друзями гуляли в місті Буча Київської області. Тій самій Бучі, де майже весь березень і перші дні квітня 2022 року відбувалася бучанська різня – геноцид українського народу, здійснений російською армією. Тій самій Бучі, сотні мирних жителів якої полягли від рук російських окупантів: вбивць, гвалтівників, мародерів, психопатів.
Good afternoon.
Today my friends and I were walking in the city of Bucha, Kyiv region. The same Bucha, where almost all of March and the first days of April 2022 the #BuchaMassacre was happening – the genocide of the Ukrainian people committed by the Russian army. The same Bucha, where hundreds of civilians have died from the hands of the Russian occupiers: murderers, rapists, looters, psychopaths.
вул. Вокзальна, Буча / Vokzalna Str, Bucha
Ми попередньо загуглили, що найбільше колон російської окупаційної техніки було спалено нашими захисниками по вулиці Вокзальна. Нею ми і вирішили пройтися в пам'ять загиблих українців.
We previously have googled that most of the columns of Russian occupation vehicles were burned by our defenders along Vokzalna Street. We decided to walk down that street in a memory of all of Ukrainian victims.
Щойно ми виїхали з Києва до Київської області, як помітили нескінченну смугу шанців уздовж дороги. Це укріплення українських захисників. Вони знищать кожного ворога, який нахабно попре на столицю.
We had just left Kyiv and entered the Kyiv region when we noticed endless trenches along the road. This is the strengthening of Ukrainian defenders. They will destroy every enemy who brazenly tries to attack the capital.
Через вікно автомобіля руйнування будівель здавалися не такими реальними: немов би ми дивилися фільм-катастрофу.
Through the car window, the destruction of the buildings didn't seem so real: it was as if we were watching a disaster movie.
Але коли ми вийшли з машини, то відчули повною мірою: все по-справжньому. Маленьке, колись таке спокійне і тихе, мальовниче містечко Буча зазнало звірячого терору Росії.
But when we got out of the car, we felt it fully: everything is real. The small, once so calm and quiet, picturesque town of Bucha has suffered brutal terror from Russia.
Якщо ви не надто добре пам'ятаєте бучанську різню, можете прочитати мій квітневий пост про ці жахливі злочини російської армії в Україні.
If you don't remember the Bucha massacre very well, you can read my April post about these horrible crimes of the Russian army in Ukraine.

Я не знімала занадто багато фотографій. Іноді мені соромно це робити на очах у мешканців пошкоджених будинків, іноді я просто застигала від болю і гіркоти, і забувала зробити знімок. Тому мій пост не відображає найстрашніших руйнувань Бучі.
I didn't take too many photos. Sometimes I was ashamed to do it in front of the residents of damaged houses, and sometimes I just got frozen in pain and bitterness, and forgot to take a picture. Therefore, my post does not reflect the worst destruction of Bucha.
Той самий пам'ятник афганцям, з яким російські солдати вступили в бій / That monument to Afghan soldiers with whom the Russian soldiers started the fight
Буча оживає, і окрім руйнувань та слідів важкої військової техніки на асфальті, всюди гуляють люди і буяє зелень. Відкрились навіть деякі кафе. Для контрасту ми пішли також подивитися на прекрасний Бучанський міський парк. Цей парк, до речі, є одним з найкращих в Київській області.
Bucha is back to life, and in addition to the destruction and traces of heavy military equipment on the asphalt, people are walking everywhere and greenery abounds. Some cafes have opened. For contrast, we also went to look at the beautiful Bucha City Park. This park, by the way, is one of the best in the Kyiv region.
Бучанський міський парк / Bucha City Park
Парк цілий, це дуже нас порадувало. Хоча, на доріжках трапляються ↕️такі от сліди від вибухів.
The park is undamaged, it made us very happy. Although, such ↕️traces of explosions occur on the tracks.
До війни в парку було дуже багатолюдно. Нині ж лише незначна кількість людей. Пляж біля озера напівпорожній, купа вільний шезлонгів. І спортивний майданчик теж майже пустує.
Before the war, the park was very crowded. Currently, only a small number of people rest there. The beach near the lake is half empty, I see a lot of free sunbeds. And the sports ground is also almost empty.
Якраз перед нашої поїздкою, а саме близько 7 години ранку, силами української Протиповітряної оборони було збито російську ракету над Бучею. Наче, ніхто не постраждав, але тут досі небезпечно.
Right before our "excursion" – today at 7 am, the Ukrainian air defense forces shot down a russian missile right above Bucha. No one got hurt, thanx God. But still, it's not safe here.
Ми неодмінно переживемо це, і не тільки це. Переживемо війну з Росією і її диктаторів. А ви завжди питайте себе щодня: що я можу сьогодні зробити корисного для того, щоб знищити російську воєнну машину? І якщо кожен зробить по маленькій краплі, наш океан затопить цю державу-терориста, і вони захлинуться у власному лайні.
We will definitely overcome this, and not only this. We'll overcome the war with Russia and its dictators. And you always ask yourself, every day: what can I do today to destroy the Russian military machine? And if everyone makes a small drop, our ocean will flood this terrorist empire, and they will choke on their own shit.
It's impossible to make any sense of what Russian army had been and is doing there. Surely one day each one of those who support Kremlin and think themselves fighting nazis in Ukraine will have to face the question about how did it happen that Russians let Putin and his mobsters turn the whole world against their country, make people hate them, cutting off Russia from the rest of the world for who knows how many years. I guess that is the only way for a profound change to take place in Russia; as one of those Russians fighting in the legion of Russians in Ukraine's defense forces said, "Russia needs to loose on the battleground". How sad are the truths that a military defeat is the only way for people to get some understanding of how things are in the 21st Century, and Ukrainians are the ones to pay the price for Russia still living in the age of empires? And all this is happening for what? For post communist "presidents for life" Putin, Lukashenko and whoever that bloke in Kazakhstan is who requested Russian army's help recently to quell the riots in his country feel safer in their seats? I pray Ukraine and other former communist republics never goes back to be part of the abomination that was Soviet Union which produced men like Putin and Lukashenko.

thank you for your deep thoughts. we were a bit shocked that russians don't even try to capture the cities and save their infrastructure: all they need in Ukraine is murdering Ukrainians and destroying everything around. illogical behavior of psychopaths.
now we understood: they need to steal our history that's why destroying us. russia wants to rewrite the world's history saying that great Rus' was their state. but it wasn't.
I just wish they went back to their caves, sick bastards

I think everything there happens in accordance with orders from the top rulers in United Russia and Putin's circle even if they aren't directly or explicitly involved. The Putin's rhetoric during his appearances on state controlled TV in Russia before the full scale invasion, drumming up the hate towards NATO as one that has supposedly "conned" Moscow wasn't exactly a covert way of saying he and his cronies feel like their space had been invaded and they don't feel safe. I understand you feel that there might be some higher, more idealistic chauvinist reasons for Kremlin's barbaric policy in Ukraine, and United Russia may even want people to think that, but for bitter criminals on a power trip who'd been trained by Soviet KGB all the nationalist ideals and slogans are just tools to try and use people as weapons. That's how soulless they are. Those same Russians who are looking in Putin's mouth on the tv screen and swallowing all the bile and lies - they are nothing more than tools for him and his cronies. Imagine if some of those people actually realize that, but still support the Kremlin line because there is nothing else for them, they are in a hopeless situation... Would it be any surprise that they are so full of hate and anger at their hopeless situation that the opportunity to direct all that at people in Ukraine is what fuels all the senseless violence and destruction?
(Just don't get me wrong - this is not an attempt for justification for crimes, just some personal thoughts on the matter in general.)

sorry, but do you really believe they were afraid of NATO? it was just a simulation. same fairy tale as about liberating the russian speaking people in the East of Ukraine from imaginary "neo-nazis".
this war lasts 300 years, and 300 years russians try to destroy the identity of Ukrainians. everything else is just bla-bla-bla for the world which actually is helpless if to tell globally.
nation of maniacs they are.

Don't know about them being afraid, but I think it certainly is something the Kremlin mob wouldn't want a confrontation with. What I believe is that each year the likes of Putin and Lukashenko spend holding to their "president for life" chairs, the worse the situation gets regarding riots. I think the war in Ukraine is not about the culture and identity, but purely power and influence. Remember how it all started with Euromaidan? The old communist schooled rulers are stressed; they don't like transparency, fair elections, democracy; especially social democracy. All the more because they realize that, once they loose the power and there are no cronies to defend them, the authorities would come for them because of the crimes Navalny and others have exposed so scrupulously. This is why Putin and his regime is so desperate to wage the war in Ukraine - he has little left to loose, he is angry and he has always despised and hated liberal democracy and European project.

I am sure navalny wouldn't have normal and fair attitude to Ukraine, too. He actually told it (about Crimea, that it won't be returned).
Who knows what's in the head of that sick bastard putin, who knows...
Sometimes I go to pages of russian steemians – putin's fans – and just get more and more proves: they definitely have brain damage.

For what it's worth, I believe the current war in Ukraine will change things fundamentally. Navalny has indeed at different times been quoted saying things only a self absorbed Russian nationalist would believe and support, and it also no secret that Navalny had been making at least partially successful attempts to unite Russian right wing opposition and cater to their tastes. But when the war like one currently taking place in Ukraine will be lost by Russia, it will not be able to carry on in its current form as a Russian federation. When the Soviet Union fell, a good number of territories got, as a minimum, a formal independence from Moscow, and a similar sort of thing should happen after the current war. The Russian right wing understanding of what Russia is should change, and thus the likes of Navalny would have some different views as compared to what they might have been ten or more years ago.

I like your point of view, especially in a part where russia falls apart) you didn't write it directly but I've caught that idea)))
But I actually dream Western countries' leaders to put their management in every country russian federation will become. Or even better: all those countries should have war with each other.
I just want a 5 metres in height wall between Ukraine and russia, and never hear about this pathetic state again🤦🏼♀️

I believe they are all into WEF and do as told. The US supported Ukrain, trained the soldiers, over 20 years of biolabs. Now the people, entire Europe has to pay the price.
The Ukrain president and his club bought very expensive villa's in Switserland. Over 50% of the weapons sent are sold.
The war will end in a few years if every useless person is dead, useless to the new world order.

Thank you Julia for this post and of course I remember the event in Bucha. I think many will keep it in mind for a long time. The whole devastation and shocked of what nowadays human can do with other human in Europe, the place that we thought safe for us.
I am glad to know that people there have done such good job restoring everything and to show that the spirit of those people who live there is strong and the nation is united.

Thank you, @stef1. I hoped I'd see recovered town life, and I did see that. In the park there was even a silent music. I guess, Bella Ciao song.
Before our "excursion", today at 7 am, the Ukrainian air defense shot down a russian missile right above Bucha... No one got hurt. So, still, it's not safe here.

You are reading russian or chinese sources? I am even not surprised, russian propaganda and lies could soak into many countries and media.
I will not assure you whom to believe, just read different world sources, may be you'll understand.
