“Not every child can say, ‘I was in the driver’s cab and saw how everything works,’” Oleh said.

His father used to take him on trips to #Mariupol, where they would go to the sea together after his shift.

Today, about 50 years later, #Mariupol is occupied, and the driver’s cab no longer means magic for Oleh, but responsibility for hundreds of lives behind his back and the rescue of civilians from #Russian missiles.

This harsh winter, #Russia has struck not only energy infrastructure, but also transportation sites. The Russians are targeting the #railways because they remain critical for moving across the country and abroad.
