Ukrainians living in the path of Russia's invasion in the eastern Donetsk region are also fighting personal battles as the front line moves closer. The mayor of Pokrovsk is mentally preparing for a military-ordered evacuation.
At midday of Day 142 of the war in Ukraine, a humanitarian coordinator in the city of Selydove paces in the echoing, Soviet-era Palace of Culture as scores of residents pick up plastic bags containing food rations.
“I am 61, and they say you cannot plant old trees somewhere else,” she says. “I belong here, and so do many other people. We believe that Ukraine is ours, and we are going to die here.” “I would like a peaceful sky over our heads,” he says before piling back into the van to return to the front. “That’s it.”
