The people of Ukraine have suffered far too much for far too many years.
Today over 10 million people are without power, millions are without water in Ukraine. And all of this is a result of the unimaginable violence and brutality of the Russian aggressor.
It so happens on this day, November 19, 1943 another aggressor carried out indescribable acts of savagery on the people of Lviv.
After a failed uprising and an attempted mass escape at the concentration camp in Janowska near Lviv, then called Lemberg, the Germans murdered 6,000 Jews.
Putin tells the people of Russia part of the reason for his ‘Special Military Operation’ is to denazify Ukraine.
It is ironic that the country he wants to denazify is now being brutalised and destroyed by his army, which is taking page by page out of the German playbook of the early 1940s.
And more irony, the president of Ukraine is of the Jewish faith.
Yesterday an 82-year-old woman in the city of Kramatorsk said: "I was been born into war and most likely would die in war.”
Profoundly tragic and sobering words.
