About the locality

Hostomel became one of the key targets of russian occupiers on their way to Kyiv: it was shelled and bombed from the air, and landing forces tried to occupy the local Antonov airport. Heavy battles were fought for the airport and Hostomel itself, as the town was liberated only on April 2.
Thousands of damaged buildings, 400 missing people, even more killed local residents, the destroyed Ukrainian plane "Mriya" — this is what the "liberators" left behind in the town.
