"Tanks fired here, shelling day and night"

The shooting attacks were day and night. We were sitting in the basement, because we couldn't even go out to buy bread. Once son found a shell near the house and brought it to the yard. Tanks hit this place, some missiles did not explode – they fell here.

I was so lucky that my children are safe and sound. Our neighbour died. He was driving through the field and was about to turn around when a mine exploded underneath him.
