‘Hell on earth’: last residents eat weeds to survive in Russian-occupied Oleshky
With supplies severed in Oleshky, a Ukrainian city occupied by Russian forces, the few remaining inhabitants are forced to subsist on wild plants. The lack of aid has left corpses exposed, and dogs are scavenging them because drone activity makes safe retrieval impossible. Residents describe the conditions as dire and life‑threatening. They receive no medical help, and electricity is absent.
