In the September 2024 issue of Hromada, readers explore Ukraine’s unprecedented operation in the Russian Kursk region, with commentary on its military and political implications. The paper highlights the powerful story of Wandering Stars, California’s first Ukrainian theater, and its mission to support Ukraine through art. Equally gripping is the exposé on the brutal conditions faced by Ukrainian POWs and the global failure to hold Russia accountable, with sharp criticism of the Red Cross’s passive role. The issue also features international military aid updates, political analysis ahead of the U.S. elections, and stories of resilience from Ukraine’s defenders and diaspora communities.
