A pregnant woman is hurriedly evacuated amidst chaos. Wednesday, March 9, a maternity hospital in Mariupol (Ukraine) has just been bombed. The soldiers provide first aid among the frightened survivors. In the middle of the courtyard is a crater caused by the shell. The facades are gutted, inside the rooms are devastated by the explosion. According to the Ukrainian authorities, 17 people were injured. The establishment of a ceasefire in Mariupol did not prevent the Russian armed forces from targeting civilians.
In Zhytomyr, a building was bombed. The city is strategic for the Russians, because it is located 150 km from Kiev. Opposite the capital, air raids destroyed houses in a residential area in Sumy. The only glimmer of hope is in Poltava, where the first evacuations took place on the night of March 9. The locals leave everything behind. “We have had nothing here for four days”says a Ukrainian.
