Former Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko has shared photos of a dog he adopted from the city of Kherson in June, on Instagram on Oct. 30.
The dog — named Kherson in honor of the city he was from — was found in a shelter following the flooding of the city, after Russian forces blew up the Kakhovka Dam on June 6.
During the war, the dog Kherson experienced the loss of his home and the death of his owner. Poroshenko and his wife discovered the dog in a shelter where they had brought humanitarian aid. Kherson now lives in Kyiv.
“He's not at all like the boy who was sitting in a cage in a flooded city,” the caption says.
“He's always running around, sniffing something. He's the best dog in the world. He's so smart, it's scary.”
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
