Mariupol, Donetsk region
About 170 thousand inhabitants remain in Mariupol. They are actually hostages of the russian military since they are unable to leave the city for the territories controlled by Ukraine.
There is a humanitarian catastrophe in the city. All the cellars are flooded, the streets are turned into rivers. Workers of the water utility service have received diving equipment and are trying unsuccessfully to repair gusts in the basements. Drinking water is still inaccessible. For the majority of Mariupol residents, it is necessary to go a long way to the points of water distribution (barrels or water carriers), still there is not enough water there.
Food is sold by merchants from the surrounding villages in spontaneous markets. But people don't have money. Hryvnia can be cashed out at two points, but the rate is extortionate - 1.8.
