Chronicles of the war in Ukraine in the Photos of the Best Documentary Photographers

Now, we are not just standing on the threshold of a new era in the history of Ukraine, we have already taken a step forward and crossed this threshold. Every day, since February 24, 2022, we have all been building new Ukraine together, at the cost of incredible efforts, painful transformations, and, unfortunately, human losses.

The purpose of this project is to convey the significance of the transformations that our country is undergoing, as well as to show the value of documentary photography, which in the conditions of war is not just a source of evidence of events but a powerful weapon against propaganda and the falsification of history.

Each photo in this book series is a symbol of the struggle, unity, and invincibility of the Ukrainian people. The East and the West, politicians and ordinary citizens, military and civilians — all are united in their desire to repel the enemy and defend their homeland and build a new society where democracy and freedom of speech will prevail.

We believe that a story without a photo is just words. Unfortunately, no one believes words in the modern world. And it is the photograph that is an indisputable document that conveys the truth and prevents the disparagement and rewriting of our history.
