Netizen: 
In this war to defend the homeland and the country, there are countless outstanding sons and daughters of Ukraine who bravely sacrificed for the country and the nation. Human history will remember them.

Netizen: 
Writers all went to the battlefield and died heroically. Ukraine has the momentum of the whole people's war of resistance! When the war first broke out, the world really underestimated Ukraine's will to resist.

"Aware of a poet?
Aware of a poet?
A poet of Cossack broods over the land.
