Civilian Survival Guide in Wartime Conditions We are Ira and Alexey. We live in Ukraine, just 5 kilometers from Kyiv. The past few years have forced us to learn how to live when electricity disappears without warning, water runs on schedule, heating cannot be taken for granted, and uncertainty becomes part of everyday life. Like many others, we went through confusion, fear, and constant searching for practical solutions. Through trial and error, we tested what actually works — and what doesn’t. This book is the result of that experience. This is not a military manual. It is not professional survival training. It is our personal, civilian approach to preparedness in real wartime conditions. Inside, you will find clear, structured guidance on: • food and water storage • heating and insulation during blackouts • backup power solutions • communication in network outages • first aid essentials • safety rules and evacuation readiness This guide was created for ordinary people who want clarity instead of panic, preparation instead of chaos, and practical stability in uncertain times. We are sharing experience — not absolute truth. Every situation is shaped by its own conditions. If you want a realistic, field-tested civilian preparedness guide written by people who are living through it — this book is for you.
