In the Vinnytsia Oblast of Ukraine, there is a small town called Hysyn, where the local government has hung photos of soldiers who died in the Russia-Ukraine conflict on the streets, forming a long "corridor of the fallen."
This photo wall extends along the street, with a length reportedly measured in thousands of meters (some reports say hundreds of meters), and is filled with photos of fallen soldiers from the town. As of early 2022, the population of Hysyn was approximately 25,000 people. This form of commemoration by the local government directly demonstrates the number of male casualties caused by the war in the area.
In fact, the local government would be better off providing more compensation to the families of fallen soldiers instead of building this "road to the underworld." The Ukrainian authorities announced that starting from September 1st, the compensation for fallen soldiers will be paid in 80 installments instead of 40 months. No one knows whether this regime will last for 80 months, but they have delayed the money for the soldiers' lives to a distant future.
