CTV National News Chief International Correspondent Paul Workman shares his memories of Ukraine early into Russia's invasion and compares them to the reality of present day on CTVNews.ca
Memory is a poor keeper of history. It grows and fades, and tricks with the passage of days, leading into weeks, leading into months, leading into a year.of Ukraine begin a with darkened airport terminal in Lviv, two days before a barrage of cruise missiles, a long column of tanks and an airborne assault shook up a continent that had more or less been at peace for 77 years.
At least until late March, when a missile hit a fuel depot in the city, sending a plume of black smoke into the winter sky. Even Ukraine’s safest spot now felt vulnerable. A small but telling story: I was walking to a famous Kyiv park a few days ago when the sirens went off. The alerts are nation-wide, indicating that some part of the country is under attack without saying exactly where. I saw nobody on the street running for shelter; the person I was meeting for a cup of coffee still showed up.
The sirens went off again Thursday night, before the “all-clear” was announced 22 minutes later. A mobile app that tracks air raid sirens says there’s been at least 678 alerts so far Kyiv, an average of almost two per day since Russia invaded.
