Svitlana Podolska, director of the municipal institution "Local History Museum of the Milove Village Council," testified: 

"Milove was occupied on February 24, the so-called LPR came to the territory of the village. Today, the museum staff has been fired by LPR representatives, and the last salary was an advance for March. 

The museum staff is sincerely grateful to the NGO "Insha Osvita" for the financial assistance provided in March, thanks to which the museum staff was able to buy food and medicine. Our employees have children in their families, and unfortunately, their family members have also lost their jobs and are unable to earn money, so this assistance is the only financial source. 

As of today, none of the employees cooperate with the occupation authorities." 

PS. We publish the stories of our fellow museum workers with their permission, and only when they believe that there is no threat to their lives and the lives of their loved ones.
