War. One hundred forty -nine days. Photos

Russian troops are shelling Seversk - a city several kilometers west of Lisichansk. Being Kyiv, traces of recent occupation are still visible

After the capture of Lisichansk, Russian troops continue the offensive in the north of Donbass. Every day the city of Seversk is subjected to artillery shelling, people are buried right near their houses. The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation announced the destruction of four Himars volley missile systems, thanks to which Ukraine can deprive Russia of an advantage in artillery. The Pentagon, however, argues that not one of the conveyed installations is disabled. In Istanbul, agreements on the export of Ukrainian grain are signed , which should at least partially remove the severity of the global food crisis. The authorities of both self -proclaimed “republics” of Donbass announced the blocking on its territory Google, and Russia expanded the list of “unfriendly states” - now, in particular, Greece and Croatia have got there. "Medusa" publishes the main photos of one hundred forty -nine days of the war.

These pictures contain scenes of cruelty, violence and death, but most of them are not placed under a special dick, which usually the editors hide similar images. In a series of these photo stories, we try to document the war as it is.
