The Ukrainian government, like Israel in Gaza, relentlessly goes on bombing residential areas in the eastern regions “to kill the terrorists hiding out there” (but also the civilians living there). The separatists, called “terrorists”, have launched a bloody counteroffensive to the South. Tension has spiked with rumors (later debunked) of a full-scale Russian invasion underway. And yet, in spite of it all, a glimmer of hope for peace has finally appeared. Or is it just an illusion?

Il governo ucraino, come Israele a Gaza, continua inesorabilmente a bombardare zone residenziali nelle regioni orientali “per uccidere i terroristi che si nascondono là fuori” (ma anche i civili che vi abitano). I separatisti, chiamati “terroristi”, hanno lanciato una controffensiva sanguinosa a sud. La tensione è a spillo con le voci (poi smentita) di una vera e propria invasione russa in corso. Eppure, a dispetto di tutto, un barlume di speranza per la pace è finalmente apparso. O è solo un’illusione?
