While many Ukrainians are fleeing the country after the Russian invasion, some are traveling in the opposite direction and returning to their home country to help anyway they can. CNN's Hala Gorani reports
From Khrystyna Bondarenko, Ivan Watson, AnneClaire Stapleton and Tom Booth in UkrainePeople sheltering in Mariupol from some of the most intense fighting anywhere in Ukraine are risking their lives each time they step foot outside their underground bunkers, a Ukrainian army commander stationed in the city has told CNN.
“Usually, Mariupol is under fire during the whole day and night. Sometimes there is 30 minutes of silence, but then the city is again under attack [from] tanks, artillery, multiple rockets, and [aircraft] like bombers and helicopters,” he said. People are reluctant to leave their underground shelters even to get hold of essentials, meaning they were trying to drink less water and eat less food. One of the few times people did leave the shelter was to prepare hot food, he said.
Information about a huge attack three days ago on a theater in Mariupol being used as a shelter has been slow to emerge.
