Residents of villages near Ichni, where an ammunition depot exploded on Tuesday, were evacuated to safer places.. Several families were sheltered by residents of the city of Nezhin, Chernihiv region, reports TSN.

In Nezhin, five schools were equipped for shelter, but only 43 people stayed in them.. The rest of the victims were taken home by local residents..

In one of the apartments there were 7 people. In this apartment live pensioners Kovtun. Two families in fear were leaving the shells. Eight-year-old Masha was taken away sleepy. The girl from the house did not take a single toy.

"I asked for a long time what happened, and my grandmother was afraid to say," says the girl.

Two more families were driving at random, because they were scared by volleys. They admit that they took only the documents, and all the animals were closed in the barn.

"I thought we were bombed from the plane, I thought the war. I didn’t take anything with me, documents and not all. What found. Everything remains, we just took our feet and everything. And the chickens are closed. And what will happen to them? And what will God give.

Thank God that we are alive, "- said a resident of the resettled settlement.

Another victim - Karina. In the morning she ran to headquarters, where she was given the necessary things for Artem’s eight-month-old son — diapers, clothes, overalls and food.

Karina says that she and her husband fled at night with her son in their arms in a panic, and now Artem is sleeping very badly. Whether they will return to where they don’t know yet, since the house in which the family lived was rented and most likely destroyed..
