«I wanted to cut down the birch trees so that Ukrainian artillery could hit more accurately».

Borshchova village on north of Kharkiv towards the Russian border was liberated from the Russian occupiers, but demining is still ongoing there. Therefore, hromadske was able to get only to the outskirts of the village to the house of Viacheslav Turetskyi, who has been living alone in the basement since February 24.
Right next to his house, the Russians set up a headquarter and ammunition depot. When the battles for Borshchova began in September, Viacheslav even regretted that he hadn’t sawed birch trees around the house to make it easier for Ukrainian artillery to aim at the enemy headquarters.
Why he did not leave for Russia immediately or later, as the Russians offered him, how he arranged his everyday life and how he realized that liberation was close, see in the report of Mariana Pietsukh.
