"Not just a parking lot is it?" I said to a literature professor called Iryna Tudua, who had just arrived from the bombed-out city in the family car."It was a really strong, painful experience, but now we have to start our lives from the beginning," said Ilya Kadava, who worked as an engineer at a steel plant in Mariupol called Illych.

We watched a woman called Marina Prylutska coax her car into the parking lot with her daughter Alisa, her mother Helena, and mother-in-law Iryna, crammed into the back.She said many of those who remain in Mariupol are desperate to get out, but there are few vehicles and very little fuel."Cars have been destroyed, they are full of bullet holes, and if somebody leaves a car then someone will take the fuel or the wheels - any way to get out.
