In one month they destroyed everything!
- Sveta, come here! A leftover from the good old days. What to feed our children with, unclear. - Are there any children here? - We need humanitarian aid! - My children are in the basement (7 and 17 years old). We are hiding in the basement. - I also have a child. We've been staying here for 1 month! 1 month!
My mom died in the basement. - Come closer here!
- Our children suffer! We use a bucket instead of a toilet! And pour it out. - Look, there are so many corpses of civilians! And see what's going on by the road! Just a mess! Go look around the private sector, around the city! There are no houses left! - My flat burned! I have to stay with my child in the basement!
- And what was the point for my parents to earn money and buy the flat? What can I leave now to my children? Ruins! - Look! There are no glasses! How to live there? - My parents also left me and their granddaughter a flat! And now there is no! - Glasses can be changed, but those houses that burned down...it's much worse there.
- Excuse me... - My flat burned, where I lived with my child! - That house also burned! - Man, my house was also destroyed in Donetsk! And now I'm homeless. - We believe you too! But what should we do now with my child? - It doesn't make anybody better. - It is what it is.
- The Central District of Mariupol. This is your current location. You can go look. Everything is completely destroyed. Shells are over there. Look, there are such big holes! Go there! Look! - Come here! - It was at 4 am! Our children were covered with debris! - Look! It landed at 4 am! - Today? - No. A week ago.
We were in the basement and everyone was stunned with the sound. Not even a staircase left. - Can you tell who shoots? - I don't know who shoots, we were in the basement. Who shoots? They don't report us. - Russia, DPR, Ukraine? - I say you, I don't know! - Okay. - Honestly! - Okay, okay.
- All Americans are afraid and hide near the houses. You check the internet and see: wherever they fought, they took positions near the houses! And they taught these as*holes to do the same! - And all those fortified areas they occupied for 8 years, they have left. - Just go to the field and shoot at each other!
- Who shoots? - Everybody shoots! I don't give a f*ck who shoots! It's just this American shit! You speak English, I don't know where are you from. Where are you from? They got involved in Ukraine and the war has started here! Because of them! That's what I say to you!
- Yasha! - What "Yasha"? My emotions just ran hot. My relatives also died! What do you think about this?! Americans created this mess, and now they are trying to be engaged! What's the point to be engaged now? - Yasha, calm down! - Jerks! - And Yanukovich is also an as*hole, wanted too much that sack with money.
He could just disperse them! - It was all about money! And regular people suffer now! - He would keep stealing the money and then... - My friends have 2-3 children, and their houses burned. And we don't even know how they are. As they were there. - There is no connection. - And then they tell how they helped Ukraine.
With airplanes. Till the last Ukrainian! This is the last news I read. Americans told so! Together with Englishmen! Why are you afraid? It's your guys who supplied them with this! America! And now they shoot. - I haven't seen my family for a month! I can't get to the Illich Iron & Steel Works. Because there's a constant shelling! I haven't seen my children and grandchildren for 1 month!
I've been sitting in the basement! What do you think about this? Is it good or no? - No... - I can't even go to the end of the house. Go and look! There are corpses! The corpses of civilians are everywhere! They do not bury them, just cover and that's it! - Yes, go look! You'll see them there! - They are just covered! Nobody buries them!
- We've seen already. - The corpses are over there! Two corpses lie there. - Corpses lie near every house! We consider our house to be quite perfect in this matter. At least it's standing still. Others are just ruined. They are in rubble!
- Where are you going to? - Going to get lunch.
We are in the centre of the city of Mariupol. The very central part of it. We're driving them away. They are retreating very quickly. But biting. Something like that. - How have the last few days been? - We've been fighting here for about a week. - Last few days were hot. - Yes, the last few days were hot.
And how far are Ukrainians from here? - They should surrender faster. This will save their lives and our time. Their situation is so bad! - How far are they? - About 400-500 metres from here.
- No, it's not lost!
- Wait for 5 seconds! A person needs water! Quickly!
- Why does it take so long? I said half an hour ago, "Come and take water!" - We are quite far away, we didn't hear! - Don't worry, he'll come next time.
I'm already quite long on Myrotvorets. - Since 2014! Let's go, Roma! But don't close the doors! Yes, the magazine is so cool, I also noticed! - I want the same! - So take it!
Roma, the first one for now! Hold on!
That's all! Relax! - Thank God! - Your stop is the next one, right? - Yes, the next one, please! - At the next stop! - That's all. Thank God! Close the door, so that the wind does not blow here. - We're getting off now, men!
- Something landed here or what? - Yes, do you see the branches?- Is it fresh? Today's? - Yes, it's fresh. It even stinks of gunpowder. - Roma, stop the bus, they will get off. Let the people out. - Take care! Thank you! - Stay safe, men! Stay safe! - See you! - Be careful! We will come to you again and check how you are.
- Where to evacuate? My grandchildren are on the other side of the city! I don't know how they are. My son is on the other side too. And I'm here. We cannot gather together! We don't know what will happen next. We have food and water, it's all okay. But where to evacuate? Where? Nowhere.
