“Kiev. Roads sab­o­taged in sanc­tu­ary.

On the night of 08.09 Kiev eco-activists dug a trench cut­ting the only road that led to the sanc­tu­ary ‘Zhukov Ostrov’, a habi­tat of sev­er­al rare species of ani­mals.
Kievan mid­dle and upper class has devel­oped a bad habit of using SUVs for week­end hikes to forests and river­banks.
The act was an attempt to make such kind of com­mu­nion with nature more dif­fi­cult.”
