No Power, No Heat, No Water: Odesa’s Days of Hell Under Russian Fire
AI Summary
Odesa, Ukraine is facing intense Russian attacks on its infrastructure, leaving residents without power, heat, and water for extended periods. The attacks, which have intensified over the past two weeks, are believed to be retaliation for Ukrainian attacks on Russia's "shadow fleet." The situation is particularly dire for vulnerable populations like the elderly and disabled, who struggle to access basic necessities and shelter during the outages. Social workers are providing assistance, but the repeated shelling and lack of essential services are taking a severe psychological toll on residents. One disabled resident, unable to walk or reach a shelter, relies on social workers for water and covers her windows to avoid seeing the drones.
