Protester: 'I am calling this terrorism because when you’re bombing a shopping mall, when you’re bombing children sleeping in their PJs in their bedroom, it’s not a war.'
Women dressed in white hold hands in front of the Water Tower as supporters of Ukraine protest Russia’s military action before a silent march along Michigan Avenue.
“This protest is asking American people, asking the government, asking President Biden to designate Russia as a terrorist state,” said Liliia Popovych, one of the protest organizers. “I am calling this terrorism because when you’re bombing a shopping mall, when you’re bombing children sleeping in their PJs in their bedroom, it’s not a war.
“Every single day it’s very hard to get sleep because you want to make sure your loved one is awake tomorrow,” Popovych said. “My friend is not alive anymore, but I’m so proud because he died for the freedom of Ukraine.”Each protester held a sign across her chest; many had the same message scribbled on a poster board.“I want to tell you more about Russian terrorism but this is sensitive content for social media.
