she began to treat you, she got there, in my opinion, yes, with the hrc delegation, for the first timew that there were no hospitals, so there were no medicines. and the children are not doctors, but they are, and the children, accordingly, there is nothing to treat them with doctors, by the way, the situation is different. there were doctors, but since syria is a patient, huh? yes, especially in medicines. there isn't. there is simply no cure for it. what is there to do? lisa she sees that there is a problem, which means that she needs to be taken out somehow, no one needs to be brought in. so you need to bring cargo cargo. it is necessary to urgently transport medicines, a cargo is bought, and eliza asks, respectively, a set for some kind of next series, he was the nearest city, seversk, the question is very appropriate, for example, and hmm, that e friend who first met xenia with elizabeth wrote literally. uh, a day or two before her uh last flight. just don’t go to syria please, in general it was all somehow with this. flying it was all a very strange story when it hit, she really
