Yaroslava Movchan has the story, narrated by Anna Rice.]] ((NARRATION)) Olha Shatska and her three-year-old daughter Darina are among the many Mariupol refugees who have come to this center in Dnipro. After she registers, Shatska will start receiving special food packages, like all other refugees. ((NATS)) ((IN UKRAINIAN)) “We got an appointment for Tuesday!” ((NARRATION)) Tetiana Prykhodko is another one of the more than 50,000 refugees who have come to Dnipro from Mariupol in recent weeks. She recounts her perilous journey. ((Tetiana Prykhodko, Mariupol Refugee )) ((Female IN UKRAINIAN)) “People would first drive for three days… Then go on foot… Children, strollers, some carrying kids on their shoulders… Oh god, it’s so tough when I think about it… We were driving on the highway; it was such a nightmare. There was so much shooting and shelling! I don’t know how the woman who was driving the car we were in… I don’t know how she managed! But we finally arrived to Manhush.” ((NARRATION)) From Manhush, Prykhodko (Pree-khot’-kow) together with other refugees made their way to Dnipro. There, she quickly found the refugee center and received groceries there. ((NATS)) “Rice porridge, vegetable oil, sugar, wheat and something sweet…” ((NARRATION)) The humanitarian aid hub called “I Am Mariupol” is set up in Dnipro’s central city library. Many of the volunteers themselves are refugees from Mariupol. They re-issue documents and help people find lost relatives and look for jobs. Consultants help refugees on financial matters, like what to do about property lost in Mariupol, insurance claims, and how to get financial aid. A psychologist and a doctor are also on hand. ((Dmytro Zabavin, Mariupol Refugees Center in Dnipro)) ((IN UKRAINIAN)) “’What tragic events take place in our hometown every single day. That’s why the Mariupol City Council had the idea to create such a center.” ((NARRATION)) It’s the second time general practitioner from Mariupol Alona Matyozova has fled the war. In 2014 when her native town in the Donetsk region was occupied by Russian separatists she moved to Mariupol. This year, the city she has learned to call home was destroyed by the Russian forces, and Alyona fled again. ((Alona Matyozova, Doctor From Mariupol)) ((IN UKRAINIAN)) “I loved Mariupol more than any other city, more even than my hometown! My employer provided me with an apartment there. I just had time to furnish it – and the war began.” ((NARRATION)) Residents from other Ukrainian cities come to this refugee center as well. On average, officials say the center receives about 200 people a day, and all the services for the refugees are free. ((For Yaroslava Movchan in Dnipro, Ukraine, Anna Rice, VOA News))
