Abstract

Russia launched an unprovoked full-scale invasion of the sovereign country of Ukraine. This movement was historic as people around the world watched the events unfold, and before our eyes, the world watched a country be destroyed and civilians lose their homes, schools, hospitals, and lives. The invasion on February 24, 2022, was particularly emotional feeling incredibly close to home in countries like Latvia that also lost its independence in a similar manner just generations before. This is the visual representation of the events by the people of Latvia for the people of Ukraine during the first 2 weeks following the invasion.
