What was the strike on Mariupol Drama Theater on March 16 like? Many people can only imagine it by the photos on the Internet. And Vasyl Moroz saw that strike from the inside.

He was on the second floor, a little aside from the explosion. The 80-year-old man started helping his wife and saw that her forehead was punched. He and his daughter brought the wounded woman down to the bomb shelter. Then the second bomb hit.

The family was separated: daughter Yulia managed to find an ambulance and took her wounded mother to Manhush. And Vasyl with injured legs and back spent another month in Mariupol. He found himself under occupation. Exhausted by wounds, illness, and hunger, he went to Manhush on foot. With a wand and a trolley.

His journey to Zaporizhzhia turned into an epic. Sometimes people gave him a ride, sometimes they shared food, soap, and medicine. Nevertheless, the elderly man achieved his goal and two weeks later he got to Zaporizhzhia.
