A disaster has struck one of Ukraine’s most important independent publishers, Smoloskyp. A heating pipeline burst, and for five hours boiling water flooded the publisher’s basement, where tens of thousands of books were stored. Access was impossible because of the extreme heat⤵️

Last night, on May 24, Russia launched another massive attack on Kyiv, damaging and destroying multiple cultural institutions and historic landmarks. This is not only an attack on civilians. It is also an attack on Ukraine’s memory, culture, and heritage. 👇🏻

This is not the full list. Several universities, churches, and other architectural monuments across Kyiv were also damaged during the attack. Russia continues to destroy not only lives, but also the cultural heritage that carries Ukraine’s history and identity.
