And in the room you see, we watched black and white Soviet TV, and where my grandmother said that TV journalists are the smartest people in the world " This house looks better than most of the houses in the village of Aleksandrovka in the Kherson region.

There are no windows, doors, roofs or floors in the houses,"

Under the rubble of the destroyed house, the Mendel family managed to find some valuable things.. The find, which was noticed by the mother of the journalist, touched the Network. “Mom found my first shoes in Aleksandrovka, which I wore when I was 6 months old,” shared Yulia.
