How Kharkiv has changed The Russian army continues to destroy with impunity one of the most beautiful cities in Ukraine. Photos by Pavlo Parkhomenko

Every day, Kharkiv is subjected to destructive attacks by Russian missiles and drones. The photos capturing this nightmare belong to the local photographer Pavlo Parkhomenko and bear witness to inhumane actions that take lives and disrupt the normal existence of tens of thousands of people.

These photos lack beautiful angles or aesthetically crafted shots. Instead, we witness a horrifying reality — destroyed homes, charred ruins, and people who have lost their homes and loved ones. These photographs reflect the injustice and senselessness of Russia's war against Ukraine.
