BBC presents a photo story on war ruins showing parallel images of ruined Donetsk airport through several destruction periods. The photo story focuses on architecture as a victim of war. The distance between the web world and the reality is seen in the fact that the Airport's website still runs normally: "Images on its website still show a gleaming glass terminal, smiling faces and spotless waiting lounges." And now, just two days after the story was published, the website is officially "not found".
