Hostomel, Moschun, Bucha, Irpin - these suburbs just a few kilometers northwest of Kyiv have become known around the world given what happened there in the first month of the war. From the heroic battles defending Kyiv from the Russian invaders to the unspeakable war crimes the Russians committed, hear it all from a man dedicating his life to informing the world of these victories and atrocities, and in doing so winning this information war against Russian propaganda. I had the pleasure of joining Svit's tour and would highly recommend to anyone in or visiting Kyiv to truly understand what happened at the outset of the war, the atrocities committed, and what Russia is capable of.Please listen to Part 1 of my interview with Svit, where we cover the critical battles just north of Kyiv that saved the city and the country in those pivotal hours and days at the start of the invasion.Tune in next week for Part 2 of the interview where we dive into exactly what happened at Bucha and Irpin, and also discuss who the Ghost of Kyiv really was.You can find more information about the live tour here - https://capitaltourskiev.com/ or on IG here - https://www.instagram.com/capital_tours_kiev/ Please also consider contributing to Svit's close friends fighting at the front doing artillery reconnaissance.
