When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, Kateryna hung up her dresses, Oksana and Stanislav put down their lawyers’ briefs, and Oksen slammed shut his philosophy textbooks. Alongside thousands of their fellow citizens, they strapped on armour, picked up weapons and chose to risk their lives for the freedom and independence of their homeland. Many would never return.
Journalist Tom Mutch woke up in Kyiv on 24 February to a world changed for ever. Making a fateful choice to stay and cover the invasion, he witnessed the forging of an ‘iron generation’ of young Ukrainians. With first-hand reporting from all the war’s major battlegrounds and front lines, The Dogs of Mariupol recounts the war’s notorious encounters, such as the battle of Kyiv and the siege of Mariupol, but also recounts untold stories, like the 1st Tank Brigade’s desperate defence of Chernihiv and Ukraine’s failed assault on the Russian stronghold of Kreminna.
This is not a just triumphalist account of Ukraine’s fight. It painstakingly documents the immense human catastrophe wrought on Ukrainian society and the divisions between those who fought and those who fled. It also delves deeper into events to answer important historical questions: could the Russian plan to capture Kyiv have succeeded? Did Ukraine make a fatal error by committing for so long to the defence of Bakhmut? And could this terrible war have somehow been averted?
