LVIV, Ukraine -- Since Friday, residents of Lviv near the Polish border in western Ukraine have been subject to a curfew that lasts from 10 p.m. to 6.a.m.

The curfew drastically alters the appearance of this beautiful city, which is registered as a World Heritage site. Street illuminations have disappeared and business and domestic lighting is turned off after 11:00 p.m. in the face of overnight air raids. The city becomes shrouded in darkness.
