Lost Their Home and Opened a Cafe: Donbas Couple Refuses to Let War Stop Them

The Voronkov family lives in Donbas, some 20 kilometers from the front lines. In May 2023, a Russian missile destroyed their home, almost killing their teenage son who was hiding in the basement. But despite it all, the couple did not give up – instead, they started a business by opening a cafe. Anna Kosstutschenko met with them. VOA footage and video editing by Pavel Suhodolskiy.
