A Ukrainian woman who escaped Russia's assault on Mariupol says troops were targeting apartment
buildings 'as if they were playing a computer game'
A Ukrainian woman who escaped Russia's assault on Mariupol said that she witnessed Russian troops targeting apartment buildings "as if they were playing a computer game."
Alina Beskrovna lived in a basement in Mariupol for a month as Russian troops destroyed her city outside. In a first-person account to UN News, she detailed how she went into hiding the morning of February 24 the day Russia first invaded Ukraine and stayed there until March 23.
She said people who could not get out within the first few days of the invasion were forced to stay because of active fighting in the streets.
"Those who tried to flee found themselves in a battlefield," she said.
