People have started eating dogs in occupied Eastern Ukraine: no food has been delivered to the city since May. People are saying, “There is actually nothing to eat there”. This is happening in the Odessa region too, and the villages around the House of Hope. The shops and markets are being systematically being bombed. The situation is worsening not just every day, but every hour. There is no chance of rescue. People have two options: either die of starvation or be hit by a drone. There is no third option.” Thanks to your kindness the House of Hope has been able to keep up the purchase of basic foods from a few local sources at reasonable prices. Thank you for your kindness and help.
Russia’s goal: No communications
Since the beginning of September, Russia has been striking internet provider and mobile operator infrastructure, damaging data centres and network nodes.
Continued attacks of this kind could lead to a deterioration in internet quality and speed, as well as an increase in service costs. Our manager at the House of Hope says that they only have one hour of Internet connection per day and that’s hardly strong enough to send messages out.
