Despite destruction, the war could push Ukraine to rebuild better, leaving behind outdated Soviet living conditions. Yurii, whose home was hit twice by Russian strikes, may be among those who benefit.

Meanwhile, Poles are voting in their presidential election amid rising security concerns due to the war in Ukraine, and growing unease that a return of President Trump could weaken America’s commitment to Europe.
