Ukraine Under Attack: Documenting the Russian Invasion
Ukraine Under Attack: Documenting the Russian Invasion
(3 months later)
Atrocities against civilians. Hundreds of casualties, with the toll rising. Millions of refugees. Thriving cities besieged and reduced to rubble.

As Ukrainians suffer these horrors of war, they continue to resist the Russian onslaught fiercely. Joined by civilians who have picked up arms, Ukrainian forces have held on to Kyiv, the capital, and forced the Russian military to change its strategy, shifting its attention to the east.

After retreating from northern Ukraine, Moscow has made the battle for Sievierodonetsk, a key eastern city, a priority as it tries to capture the entire Donbas region.
On the vast expanse of wide-open flatland, the war has bogged down in fierce artillery duels and hard-fought battles for coal mining and farming towns in the Donbas region, as most of the civilian population has already fled. In mostly deserted towns, authorities trucked in water and food, while volunteers evacuated stragglers, many of them elderly or disabled.
After drawn-out street fighting in May and June, Moscow claimed the cities of Sievierodonetsk and Lysychansk, cementing its control of most of Luhansk Province while becoming bogged down through the summer in drawn-out, lethal artillery duels elsewhere in the Donbas.
But even where Ukraine has succeeded in pushing the Russians back, there has often come unimaginable terror. Retreating Russian troops left a trail of bodies in the suburbs of Kyiv. In the town of Bucha, evidence unearthed by local officials, residents and journalists suggested the Russians had killed civilians recklessly and sometimes sadistically.

In the town of Bucha, evidence unearthed by local officials, residents and journalists suggested the Russians had killed civilians recklessly and sometimes sadistically.
The battle is now converging on the eastern region, which is familiar ground for Russian forces because they invaded the area in 2014. The massing of troops there has led to yet another round of evacuations, as thousands fled the region in anticipation of an escalation in fighting.
A new threat arose in July, as Russian troops began placing artillery in the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, the largest nuclear station in Europe, daring Ukraine to shoot back and risk striking reactors or spent fuel storages. Combat has raged in and around the site for weeks.
For the past 13 weeks, photographers with The New York Times and other news organizations throughout Ukraine have chronicled the ordeal of war.
