Strength and durability of democracy, ofy democratic natis standing up to authoritarianism. and now that victory may be slipping away. over the last few weeks ukraine has faced some of the heaviest attacks from russia since the war began. russia is once again firing missiles atin ukraine s two largestra cities kyiv and khark. russia has taken roughly 20% of ukrainian territory while leaving entire towns destroyed in its wake. the fightingoy on the front lin of the war has become a bloody stalemate. ukrainian society has become war-weary. it s become harder to find ukrainian troops to fight through the harsh winter months. and during all of this, ukraine is literally begging for assistance from its western allies. but thanks to trump and republican leaders in congress, that assistance has almost stopped flowing. just before the new year the united states sent out what it could be its last package of

Now a routine rhythm for many. you kind of get used to it, said this man. you don t look or listen carefully to what is happening. but i want to live a normal life. after five months of fighting, there s little here left to destroy. except lives. like a video game designer who was killed just before christmas. he always cared about other people more than himself, said his friend. and diplomacy reached another impass this week. russia announcing it will ban oil sales to any country that imposes a cap on what it can charge. the move may limit the ability to punish moscow. but on ukraine s home front, energy is also in short supply. civilians huddled through a cold, dark christmas with electricity outages, war weary but still celebrating as best they can. and this war is now in its 11th
