According to Starukh: "It was very difficult to cross the combat line due to shelling. I hope we will be able to evacuate people and return them to normal life.
Today is a difficult day because children continue to suffer. Four children were hospitalised. Three children were fired at in the former Huliaipole district, currently the Polohiv district. They were all trying to escape Mariupol, to save themselves. One child is in critical condition.
These inhuman monsters continue waging war on children. But they will have to answer for everything. For every child. For every life."
