Alright, the air raid alert is on, here we are. Time to hop out
The MiG took off, the bus pulled to a stop, and the driver switched off the engine. The people in the cabin were quiet, hoping the driver would ignore it and it would come through.

It was a peaceful and quiet night in London, only some fox barked in the distance. I checked the time on my phone. Five in the morning. Instinctively I opened Facebook and saw awful news. “Russia launches rockets on Ukraine”. The whole country was on fire. I've read it many times but couldn't grasp any sense of it.Antonina Maliei, London
