Kiev, Ukraine. 8th September, 2015. Huge rainbows ascended over Kiev this week as cease fire comes to war torn Eastern areas of Ukraine. After many months of bitter gun fire in the East of Ukraine and last weeks fights near the Verkhovna Rada (Parliament) in Kiev, where 3 policemen were killed and 120 wounded, silence came to all regions of Ukraine, while rains and rainbows washed and lit Kiev skies. After hot August and first week of September with temperatures in Kiev reaching 37 degrees Celcius, fresh winds brought clouds, rains and rainbows. Credit: Dmytro Mossienko/Alamy Live News


Kiev 8 September 2015. Huge rainbows ascended over Kiev this week as cease fire comes to war torn Eastern areas of Ukraine. After many months of bitter gun fire in the East of Ukraine and last weeks fights near the Verkhovna Rada (Parliament) in Kiev, where 3 policemen were killed and 120 wounded, silence came to all regions of Ukraine, while rains and rainbows washed and lit Kiev skies. After hot August and first week of September with temperatures in Kiev reaching 37 degrees Celcius, fresh winds brought clouds, rains and rainbows. Rainbows are traditionally seen in Slavic cultures as the symbol of peace and friendship between the people, which is now so much desired by Ukrainians, Russians and other people. Pictured is one of the rainbows over Kiev Podol (lowland) region.
