Children underground

 Newborn twin brothers sleep in a basement used as a bomb shelter during the bombing of Kyiv. They were admitted to the hospital right the days before the Russian invasion started. Boys have an orphan genetic disease that has to be diagnosed and treated specifically.
 生まれたばかりの双子の兄弟は、キーウ爆撃の際に防空壕として使われた地下室で眠っていた。彼らはロシアの侵攻が始まる数日前に入院した。男の子は稀少な遺伝性疾患であり、特殊な診断と治療が必要だった。
