Artwork found on the street in Lublin

Tanks marked with o, v, z, x, o. The first one is most prominent, having a z-symbol and a russian flag, and a text bubble - "We came to rescue - don't you see?" All tanks shooting and residental houses burning. Anna Ivanenko (?)

"To the toilet - don't wanna pee on myself because of fear!"

"You can take those mattresses. They've left and won't come back. The woman went to serve in the army. Her daughter left to the relatives, grandma - to her friend." And the woman is 56 years old. (2nd of March)

"My daughter works as a chef in a café. They gave away some food. We cooked hot meals there, will bring now, will you share here?" (28th of February)
