Residents eating garden weeds in Russian-occupied city cut off from food and water
Two more civilians died last night, says Halia, before her phone connection cuts off. She is trapped in the Russian-occupied Ukrainian city of Oleshky, which she says is constantly shelled and cut off from food and water. Three days later she tells me the two who were killed were a husband and wife. They were bringing home a bag of food from the closest neighbouring town of Radensk, 23km (14 miles) away, but were unable to get home before a curfew imposed by Russian occupation authorities. They were then killed by a drone.
