Olha will always remember the day when she left Mariupol with her children, leaving home forever. Heavy shelling turned the city into a trap from which it was possible to escape only on foot. Their path was difficult and tiring. When Olha's family reached Manhush, her father was brutally beaten by enemy soldiers. Her apartment, which was once full of comfort and family warmth, turned into ruins. All her past, calm reality is completely destroyed. But despite all this, she did not lose strength and hope. Olha told her story as part of the "Heart of Azovstal" project, which supports the military defending Mariupol from the russian invasion in 2022.
