Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has congratulated the Ukrainians on Easter, saying that the holiday is more than just a religious one; it brings confidence that the hardest challenges have already passed.
"Resurrection is a victory of life over death, it is a victory of truth over lies, a victory of light over darkness, a victory of good over evil. This is our victory over a hard economic crisis caused by the Russian aggression. This year's Easter is a very special day, as it gradually brings confidence that the hardest challenges have already passed," Poroshenko said.
I hope and pray this is true. Glory to UkraineQuote:

War kills randomly…
Oleksiy Venikov was laid to rest in Novhorod-Volynsky, Zhytomyr Oblast on April 7, 2018. We are sad to report that after returning home from the war zone, Oleksiy took his own life…
Oleksiy served as major and engineer in the 30th Separate Mechanized Brigade. He leaves behind his wife, who also serves in the same brigade, and two small sons.
