❗️ 🇺🇦 Ukrainian forces are using drones to deliver food to civilians trapped in Russian-occupied Oleshky.
In one of the largest recent operations, around 4 tonnes of food were dropped at 100 locations across the city.
Around 2,000 Ukrainians remain trapped there, including dozens of children. People are struggling without reliable access to food, electricity and water.
And even getting the food is dangerous. Russian forces shoot down drones carrying supplies, confiscate or resell the food, while residents risk detention and beatings for receiving Ukrainian assistance.
THAT’S JUST INSANE!!!! Ukraine has to fly food by drone across the Dnipro to feed its own citizens because Russia occupies their city and won’t let them leave.
Russia is not only refuse to let civilians safely leave Oleshky. International humanitarian organisations, including the UN, have still not been given access to bring food and essential supplies into the city.
