"The guys are holding on by every means," said a gray-bearded military ambulance driver in a green cap, who gave his name as Serhii. The 58-year-old is commander of the "Shark" medical evacuation unit of the 117th Separate Heavy Mechanized Brigade. He added that some units defending the city are frustrated because they "aren't getting the support they need."

What is not mentioned is the millions of displaced Ukrainians and the need for support from the state. The lack of electricity is problematic for groceries that needs refrigeration, online banking, transportation, heating, communications and much more. The US has created a program to support shops and grocery stores stay in business to alleviate the demand for humanitarian aid. It's a national disaster in such a magnitude every single day.
