AFPPIX:Twenty-year-old Erika Martyniuk only had five days together with her newly-wed husband before he was killed fighting Russian forces in southern Ukraine.
“When I saw photos of his body in the morgue, it felt like I was dead too,“ Erika told AFP at a park in Kyiv. “Our main dream,“ she said, “was to have at least one quiet day when we could not think about the war, about the fact that we’ll wake up tomorrow and he’ll have to leave again.” “They tell it like it is: ‘it won’t be easy, you’ll be in pain for a very long time and you won’t know what to do’,“ she said.Ukraine has not disclosed how many soldiers have died at the front.
