"Don't leave us alone," begged a poster held by one of the Ukrainian children from Dénia who gathered this weekend under the town hall. Together with them, almost a hundred people gathered to demand the end of the war against their native country.
More than 600 residents of Dénia come from Ukraine, according to this year's population census. A country now at war, being the scene of a new war that is sweeping the entire continent and which could lead to a Third World War.
The dead in Ukraine already number in the hundreds, being 352 according to the latest data from the country. Most of them, 198, civilians. In addition, more than 1.600 people have already been injured due to the war that has broken out in Eastern Europe.
This attempted invasion by Russia has shocked Western society in general, showing support for the Ukrainian people throughout cities across the continent. Also in Dénia, where this weekend several families from the country have gathered under the consistory, to cry out for the end of the war and seek the solidarity of the neighbors.
