Hundreds of pelicans took to the skies over Odessa as rescuers and firefighters in the city were busy dealing with the aftermath of yet another Russian missile attack. The hundreds of snow-white bodies of the birds against the background of the almost black sky, in which clouds of smoke swirled, shocked the witnesses.
The official telegram channel of the Odessa city administration writes about the striking effect that this wonderful spectacle brought in the midst of the anguish of war. Birds have been perceived by people as a symbol of hope:
“Into whatever darkness the enemy tries to plunge Ukrainians, the light will always be with us, in our hearts! We will overcome everything! And we will win! And there will be no more black, poisonous smoke. There will be a blue, Ukrainian sky. We will it’s Ukraine!”, the channel says.
