Stories that you confided to us
I waied out alone in the basement until the most severe battles stopped. I buried my husband a long time ago, and I haven't seen my son for several years.
The windows, the doors and the roof of the house were destroyed. The neighboring houses had all walls broken. Hundreds of homes have not been restored in the city after the shelling.
I worked at the railway station in Ilovaisk for 30 years. I am retired now. I get UAH 670 a month. I had to spend all my savings on home repairs.
If it wasn't for humanitarian aid, I don't know how I would have survived. Many people have almost no chance to make it through the winter in the dilapidated city.
