Twenty Ukrainian books that had been trapped under the rubble of a library in the Kharkiv region were recovered by military personnel during a combat sortie, Kyiv24 reports. The volumes were retrieved from the destroyed site and transported to Kyiv for preservation and exhibition.

The rescued books are currently presented in a small exhibition at the Chervonyi Korpus (Red Building) of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv (KNU). The showing places items saved from frontline destruction into a university setting; readers who want to view the books should check KNU’s announcements for visiting hours and further details.
