War in Ukraine

Hello dearest community!

For the past few days, I have also been following the news of the horrific act of Putin's aggression in Ukraine, the shelling of civilian buildings, hospitals and the threat of weapons of mass destruction.

I feel sadness and deep respect for the Ukrainians, who are heroically fighting against the numerical superiority. I was in this beautiful country a few years ago, walked for 2 weeks in their charming mountains, met friendly people and tasted their excellent cuisine. They have a lot to fight for.

I feel also sad for these unnecessary losses on Russian side. War should never be the answer in a civilized society.

Last weekend, I sent 2 months of average income from the Russian and Belarusian regions to Člověk v tísni (People in Need), a non-profit organization that will use the money to help the most vulnerable people in Ukraine.

I condemn the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

I stand behind Ukraine. I stand behind Russians that are against these actions of the Russian government.

If you can, please help this war-afflicted country. Take care, Jan

Edit1: Some of my Russian friends are asking me to provide sources for these reprehensible events.

To be honest, I don't fully trust any media article in my or any other country, I don't even have a TV at home. What I trust is testimony of people there, without any political bias, just video footage by their cellphones. You may check https://liveuamap.com/ which is gathering some of these observations. Like this one for instance https://twitter.com/StahivUA/status/1499291604212924416 Or this one https://twitter.com/OstrivGame/status/1498632975797338117

This is simply not acceptable for any cause on any side of conflict.

I am just a game developer living several hundreds km from this war, having friends in Ukraine and Russia. I am trying to help people in need. There is no political nor propaganda background. Just sadness for all unnecessary victims...
