She walked more than 20 km on mined roads, where cars and people are constantly targeted by drones. Then, for a week, using various means, she made her way out of the occupied area and reached Kyiv today. I still can't quite believe that she made it ❤️" 📹: fata_gorgo/Instagram

Lost my grandmother's second house to a drone strike a week and a half ago (she was inside and miraculously survived again). Yet months of starvation (everything written about people surviving in Oleshky is an understatement) forced her to choose: fear or life. She chose life and took the risk.

Since 2022, she had been taking care of stray animals, sheltering nearly 30 dogs and cats. In recent months, she worried more about what they would eat than about feeding herself. But the dogs and cats started disappearing right from the yard. Because people have nothing to eat.

This is where Russian drones hit: residential areas of Kyiv. Turn the sound on if you can. The lady is saying: This school is full of children. A Russian drone just flew in. I hope they had time to get down to the shelter.
