From a friend in Poland:

“My friend from Kiev, Lyudmyla Dyachenko, who doesn’t want to leave the city for anything in the world, wrote something about Ukrainian women:

A dog shelter today in the suburbs of the Sumy city. A car pulls up. A lady gets out and says: A huge Husky was wandering not far from the city. I think her owner abandoned her. The dog was looking a bit sad and was a bit aggressive. I felt sorry for her so I ran across the field to catch the poor dog. Take her into the shelter please.

The vet opens the door of the car and is amazed: There’s a wolf sitting in the back seat. True — a huge, gray wolf. Its eyes are the same as the vet’s- full of amazement. So this woman caught the wolf with her bare hands because it seemed a bit sad!

Russians — Think first who you are with at war!”
