VIDEO: Merry Christmas from Ukraine: a time to remember the victory of light over darkness!
How do Ukrainians celebrate Christmas?
LVIV, UKRAINE—Here you can take a short tour of Christmas in Ukraine from a year ago, on the eve of war.
And even as I send this, on this Christmas weekend, the Russians have killed people with missile strikes on recently-liberated Kherson.
In Ukraine, both Orthodox and Greek Catholics celebrate Christmas on January 7, but December 25 is also a festive occasion, in solidarity with the Western world.
... and maybe here you will see some of the superpower that keeps Ukraine going!
—Joe Lindsley
Merry Christmas from Ukraine! Please share with your friends, colleagues, and family. And thank you for your support these past 10 months of terrible war.
