Stories that you confided to us
Yana was surviving in Mariupol with her daughter Daryna, who was only 8 years old. She recounts how they walked together across an old cemetery and ran into a mass grave. It was a long trench, 30 metres long. Yana threw Daryna over across the trench, while she herself fell down onto the dead bodies. To get out, she piled up three dead bodies under her feet: a man, a woman, and a child. Yana got out of the trench, but she nearly died in her yard when she was burying her neighbours.
