In Kharkiv, a Wedding took place in a city under constant shelling
A ceremony of love was underway in the local subway, a common place for shelter for hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians as Russian forces advance over their cities.
The couple celebrated by taking photos against the background of a destroyed historical building and a bombarded city centre – not your usual photo zone post ceremony.
On twitter, the European Expert Association Director Maria Avdeeva says “this is a strong message to the world – Kharkiv is resisting and living.”
