Over 90,000 Civilians Still Refuse to Leave Kramatorsk and Sloviansk

Original version ·

While the frontline creeps closer, two major cities in the east are carrying on as if heavy artillery were merely bad weather.

Despite being well within striking range of Russian guided bombs, more than 90,000 civilians are still holding out in Kramatorsk and Sloviansk. Even wilder: over 5,000 of them are kids.

Special evacuation squads like the White Angels and Phoenix keep running armored shuttles every single day, but the mass exodus just isn't happening. People still plant gardens, open shops, and push strollers while sirens blare constantly in the background.

Stubborn human attachment to one's own apartment turns out to be far stronger than official warnings and basic survival instinct combined.
