There were several air alarms, and Pandikidis spent much of the day in a bomb shelter.

According to him, a thermobaric bomb exploded in the afternoon about a mile away. The information has not been confirmed.

“The house shook louder than ever before,” Pandikidis described the force of the explosion.

For much of the day, the water was broken, but returned for the evening. The television stopped working.

Pandikidis left his house only to take food to his friend.

He did not confirm information about the Russian landing forces in the city.

“The city is not under Russian control and will never be,” Pandikidis said.

Kharkov living in the suburbs Vladislav Stadnik said his residential area has been quieter than the rest of the city. However, Russian planes were visible in the sky. Instead, the eastern and northern parts of the city are subject to rocket fire.

“Today we drove a car in the neighborhood. Gasoline can’t be bought, so we’re using leftover fuel. ”

Stadnik went to take food to a nearby metro station that is full of people.

“There are a lot of families with children there. People sleep side by side next to the piers and train cars. It’s pretty cool there. It is difficult to supply food and water. ”

According to him, there is no organized food distribution in the city, but food must be purchased from the store in cash. This is a problem as many are starting to run out of cash.

“People run out of food. Shops may be robbed, ”he moans.

According to Stadnik, many want to leave the city. Evacuation trains have left Kharkov both on Tuesday and Wednesday. Stadnik’s family of acquaintances also left on Wednesday.

The situation is also weakened in Odessa, which Russia fired from the sea for the first time on Wednesday.

In the morning, a Russian warship appeared near the shore, firing in the direction of the airport.

“Two rockets flew over it, floating wildly,” says a resident of the beach villa. Irina Tkats.

“The house shook like jelly. I was afraid it would drop off the seafront with the sea. Then came an air alarm.“

Television reporter Ruslan Drozdovin Russia has been said to have several warships in Odessa.

“Yesterday was the wind of seven Beaufort. Poseidon saved us. ”

Odessa’s famous sandy beaches have been mined in the event of a landing.

Alarm siren rings in the city a few times on Thursday. In those neighborhoods where the siren does not work, church bells are ringing.

The streets of the city center are full of armored obstacles, which make it possible to move mainly on foot. The city’s famous opera house is surrounded by sandbags and other obstacles just like during World War II.

Drozdov estimates that one-fifth of the people have left the city. He plans to stay in Odessa with his wife and children.

“This is our country. We are at home. ”

He said waste management, for example, works normally, and today he saw park workers cutting down trees. However, the curfew starts at seven o’clock.

“It’s hard to believe this war is true. But when the siren rings, you remember that this is true. ”
