“The tank returned, raised its muzzle, and fired between the 4th and 5th floors. Everything fell on us”
Together with his wife, their pregnant daughter, their son, and son-in-law, Oleh survived an airstrike on the maternity hospital on 9 March. “We heard the sound of a plane. We ran to the basement. Olia ran forward. The roaring was just terrible,” recalls Oleh, a resident of Mariupol. “Olia hit her head against the wall. I fell on her. Some stones and pieces of glass fell on us. I lost my consciousness. I was covered by the rubble.”
Oleh and Olha [Olia] were seriously injured. They were sent to the regional hospital. The volunteers took their daughter, their son, and son-in-law to the maternity hospital in the left-bank part of the city. And the family was separated for several months.
