 In one state institution, in a line of people, a woman, probably from Polissia (northern districts of Rivne region), told about an incident she had in Sarny. Immigrants from the east of the country have rented an apartment. When the last day of rent and payment came, they disappeared and stopped communicating by phone. The owner of the apartment went to them, opened the door with his key and saw that all the gas valves were open, and on the table was a note: "We were burning and you will burning."

         I heard exactly such a fairy tale a little earlier in another place, in our town Dubno. Even all the details match. Apparently, someone is trying to arouse malice in people towards immigrants from the east of the country. Someone needs this discord and they spread such rumors.

    It is very bad.

 Air alarm in the morning. The whole week was without alarms, the last one was last Friday, February 3. 

        Electricity supplies began to be turned off a little less. No longer for 4 hours, but for one or two hours only. Sometimes they don't turn off at all.

         We talked with our former colleague S-k. She said that her son is in army now. Before the war, he worked as a neurologist in a local hospital. Now a military doctor. He completed a five-week course in military medicine conducted by American instructors. The course was very useful. He told her that in 5 weeks of the course, he learned more about military medicine than in 5 years at university. 

      There are many wounded on front. Sometimes he has a chance falls asleep 2-3 hours a day only. There are also many dead at the war. He said that a company of 80 men was sent to the front line. Back, only 16 returned alive. The soldiers were seriously wounded. Once they brought 4 wounded soldiers completely skinless. It is unknown what happened to them and why they received such injuries.

         It was already the second, long air alarm of the day. They are bombing, mainly energy facilities. Today, one of the Russian missiles was launched from the Black Sea and flew through Moldova to Romania. Moldovans summoned the Russian ambassador for an explanation. Romanians, members of NATO, are silent for now.

 Vlad called yesterday evening. He said that his nephew is in the army now and he was sent to Bakhmut. Today, it is the fiercest district on the front. The Russians have brought convicts there from prison, like the private military company "Wagner" and they have advancing as like as fools without counting the losses. Vlad's nephew says that local people support the Russians more than the Ukrainian army.

 Last Saturday, January 14, the Russians launched a massive missile attack on Ukraine. Most of the dead were in the city of Dnipro, where a rocket hit a residential, panel high-rise building. To date, 35 dead people, including two children, have been removed from the ruins of the building. 39 people were saved, 75 were injured. Among the wounded are 14 children. The fate of another 35 residents of building is unknown. Perhaps they will add to the lists of the dead.

      PS: After stopping the search for the dead and removing the debris, 45 people are considered dead, including 6 children. The fate of 20 people is unknown. It is assumed that their bodies were burned to the ground as a result of the fire.
