New Year in Volgograd
So now it's the 30th of December, New Year is coming and i must be in a festive mood...
New Year in Russia is like Christmass in Catholic countries... Presents, lights, garlands, Christmas trees...
And two terroristic attacks. I'm so shocked!!! It's like stealing a holiday!
The first attack happened yesterday. A suicide bomber detonated a bomb inside a train station. It's awful. a lot of people were there. Volgograd Railway Station - an architectural monument. I live three bus stops from the station. I can see the station's clocks from the window. I head the detonation but I could not imagine what it was!!!
The second attack was today in the morning. It was on a trolleybus. It was full of people and it was a few kilometres from my house...
Today people in Volgograd are afraid. They walk on foot or take a taxi and so do I.
And what we can do for New year? Stay home. There will not be any celebrations, shopping centers are closed. And most importantly - dozens of dead and wounded. They will not return and any of my friends could be among the victims.
And most importantly - nothing can be done, what an outrage! I understand that I can not change the situation, I can not protect anybody, it's awful. I'm at a loss for words.
