9-year-old Daryna was escaping from Mariupol with her mother. She called enemy aircrafts “rogues.” She watched a two-year-old boy die of dehydration in the basement. “When I was in the basement, my mother said: ‘I’ll make porridge.’ When I heard an explosion, I jumped out of bed. But mom was cooking right on the street! I came out with tears. They shouted to me, “Daryna, stop!” And was going to see my mom. Smoke. I thought, ‘That’s it, I don’t have a mother anymore.’ And then I saw my mother alive in the smoke,” the girl recalls.
