Fleeing is the only way out for many Ukrainian families living in areas bombed by Russian troops. The case of Kharkov is especially dangerous, having been one of the first targets of Putin’s Russia.
At laSexta we talked to Alexandra, who has managed to get to Spain with her three-year-old son and who is looking for a way to start from scratch. “The first bombardment was around 5:00 on February 24. When the glass shattered, it came out everywhere“, he says in the video.
It was then that he picked up his son, but was unable to tell him that they no longer had windows: “He opened his mouth and could not vocalize“. Her son was “trembling” and she couldn’t calm him down because she admits that she wasn’t able to calm herself down.
They went to their neighbors’ house for seven days, where they were with 40 people and “a lot of children”. “We were afraid to go outNot for food or anything. It’s scary because you hear how they bomb all the time. One woman had her legs severed from a bombing,” she recounts.
