sharing the little her family has the latin infant. i've earned a small salary. electricity is more expensive. groceries are more expensive. we can't afford everything we need. despite that, she's taken in 2 families from ukraine, including her sister in law, oksana huskiness, sca fled her home in odessa in february. she's here with her daughters latter, who wanted to show us that she can do the splits, goes letter. oh, probably. i missed our home, my husband was there a living room and i built our house with our hands for your program. the only thing we have left is our home recorded. thought no clue. those that really from where people will in any gretisca, was moved by the plight of ukrainian refugees and decided she had to help. she is

using her honey making factory to store the donations she's collecting for women and children. it's not much, but they're, you know, a little and little we are collecting the help that we need. i am a mom that i have 2 boys and i can not imagine what feel not mothers that live there. how says at this christian camp more help for ukrainians here. they can also get medical attention from volunteer nurses. we met an yes of it's guy here. she's longing to go back home. one dreamed that i have just come back to craig. i know is it? i want to be in stay in ukraine and to we have the plan and just to rebuild our gone, 3 of the full $100000.00 refugees that have passed through moldova since the war began in february. about 100000 are still in the country modelled in authority, say they need help looking after them. the 1st responders for the support was

definitely the governmental republic of moldova. at the same time, i saw a b, a poor from the population, civilian population without international support. we cannot face entire that there . if we're g z a to support them, that support is now slowly coming in. and it will go a long way in helping the ukrainian refugees and the mold irvin's who helped them. and we can now go to our correspondence commonly in kia who was in the town of butcher yesterday where they evidence of atrocities against civilians were discovered. nick, tell us what did you see and whichever which is a city that basic has been destroyed before it could even be completed. the city full of new build apartments for young families on the edge of care. and we

basically stuck here in downtown kia for the last few weeks hearing the artillery fire hearing the missiles, hearing the devastation from afar. but we could still hear where we are here, but we couldn't get there. so it was under russian control to fighting. now, finally would be able to get in and take a look at it for ourselves. it's pretty difficult place to look at. you can see a lot of signs, devastation, lots of shrapnel. lots of munitions is lying everywhere you go and that's after it's been cleared up in recent days by the ukraine forces us have burnt russian tanks, but most importantly, lots of signs of civilians who lost their lives. people telling us of their relatives who went out to try and find some food during that month or so, or under ocean control being shot on the streets and then not even being able to recover their bodies for fear of getting shot themselves, having to watch as their relatives lay on the streets there. we went to a mass grave near a church where the locals had tried to rec, those bodies, even while the russians were still in charge. i took talking to us about the risks

they faced, trying to recover. those bodies lay as a bodies from different periods, some just wrapped in blankets, some just in the clothes they'd been found in an attempt by the locals to collect the id documents on people if they had any on them to then lay to be able to now get in touch with their families, their friends, to reconstruct what happened. um, we also went to a cellar of a children's holiday camp where there was blood on the walls, bullets, and its place where as ukraine side says, civilians were executed and certainly i've spoken to photographers who were there while the bodies were still in place. they've been recovered, but we got their cert, sir. it's a place of great destruction of fear among people there. but you do notice a very insistent relief on the part of those people who stayed there all the time. happy now to be living without artillery, without fire going on around them. but lots people, they're not really convinced that this is the end of this not fully able to believe that they are now going to be safe in the homes. so what's being done now,

to document what happened there and, and to identify the perpetrators. well, the cranial sort is all making a big effort to try and get people to tell their story, while their memories are still fresh and clear in certain parts of this key of region. when you even just turn up, you get an automatic text message from the government, asking you to relay your experiences. and to document that to protocol that on a more kind of civilian volunteer level to people who had dug those graves, try and recover the of the civilians talked about having lists, having excise books full of names full of basically people writing down their, their experience, their protocol as it happened over that last month and, and certainly there will be now an attempt on the part of the ukraine government to take this on whether or not they will ever get any chance to put some of these russian military people who are on the ground and in charge of witcher in on trial, that seems fairly unlikely, but at least they wanting now to create

a record and to make sure this can't be denied or forgotten. did have you correspondence nick connelly, they're reporting from keith. thank eunice. now they have always been street musicians in the western hic, rainy and city of la viv. but now during the russian invasion there more than just entertainment residents of love. if say the music they play and songs they sang, bring comfort and remind them of better times. ah, for the 2nd time today, air raid sirens and leave, people rush off to find shelter. oh, oh no. when the all clear is given a different sound is heard, lou
