The strongest photos of the past week

The lenses of the photographers have "caught" in the most brilliant way the most important events that happened last week from one end of the world to the other.

Regardless of the difficulties we face and there are many and everywhere, that is, all those that make our life have a meaning.

Ukraine: The cry of refugees and the sad Kyiv

The war in Ukraine reached a happy month. Bombings, death, pain and refuge. The hostilities do not end with the price paid by Ukraine and Russia being huge while the impact of the world war has led to a number of economic and political impasses.

The Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, has been hit hard by Russian bombardment as residents and the army try to defend and fortify strategic parts of the city using whatever means they can.

Meanwhile the wave of refugees crossing the border into Poland, Moldova and Romania is huge with the scenes unfolding at the train stations being at least moving.

Moscow, Russia: The pose for a photo in front of the Kremlin

The Russian leadership may have made a disastrous decision for the lives of millions of people after the invasion and war in Ukraine, but that does not mean that life does not somehow find the formula to continue and have a flow. This is shown at least by the image of the woman posing happily in Moscow against the backdrop of the Kremlin.
