JOHANNESBURG: Cut off by Russian forces and surrounded by the sounds of battle, Adamu Rabiu sleeps in his clothes, shoes laced, ready to flee if he can.
"We don't know how many days this situation will last," the 23-year-old medical student told AFP by telephone."It's scary. There is no solution to get out. It is worse to stay." Buses and trains have stopped running. A handful of taxis brave the streets, but charge a fortune. The students pool their money to pay the fare when they go out for groceries.
"If the war takes a year, we will be waiting here for a year," he said."I made up my mind. If there is a road, a bus, at taxi, a train - we are just going to move."
