Viktoriia Pokatis. Invincible. А book about the resistance of Ukrainian women in the war against Rus | Вікторія Покатіс

Invincible is a profound book about Ukrainian women, about their stout Ukrainian spirit, about women’s unity and the incredible courage they found to leave home and save their families and their country. It reveals the unexpectable qualities of Ukrainian women that have emerged during the war, showcasing how they help the army and passionately dream to rebuild their country.

This powerful publication includes 30 compelling stories of diverse women: female soldiers, paramedics, volunteers, founders of foundations and shelters, lawyers representing the rights of Ukrainians in different countries, and women organizing campaigns to ensure that Ukraine’s voice is heard all around the world.

The purpose of this book is to draw the world’s attention to the all-embracing activities of Ukrainian women, who have bravely joined the Armed Forces or the Territorial Defense Forces, gather humanitarian aid and deliver it in a hail of bullets, pull the wounded out of the rubble, provide medical care, and evacuate children, the elderly, and animals in peril of their own lives. Ukrainian women have discovered profound qualities they would never have thought they had. This book is a testament to the wisdom and indestructibility of Ukrainian women.

The characters featured in this book gave their interviews between February and September 2022, during the full-scale invasion of Russia. All information regarding events is presented as of the time of each interview.
