UMVA has learned that a group of women, whose lives have been deeply intertwined with the Russian language, are left reeling in shock and outrage after a devastating attack on their dormitory.
One woman, still grappling with the trauma, shared her sentiments, saying, "We've spoken Russian our whole lives," and added that the strike had left her "speechless." The words hung in the air, a poignant testament to the profound impact of the assault on her and her community.
Another woman, who spoke to Sanchez, expressed her conviction that the attack was no accident, but a deliberate act of aggression. "They were deliberately targeting (the campus). It couldn't have been a mistake," she said with conviction, her voice laced with a mix of anger and defiance.
Her words were echoed by a sense of pride and ownership, as she boldly declared, "This is our Donbass. This is Russian land." The statement seemed to resonate deeply with her, and the weight of her words conveyed a strong sense of resistance and resilience.
The Russian Foreign Ministry has strongly condemned the attack, branding it a war crime and leveling accusations at NATO members, claiming they helped Ukraine select targets for strikes. The Ministry's denunciation has added fuel to the fire, escalating tensions and deepening the sense of outrage.
