It was the seventeenth day of heavy shelling, unceasing terror, severe food shortages, and darkness, when half of Iryna's and Nikolay's house burned to ashes. The ongoing attacks in Popasna, a small city in the Luhansk region of Ukraine, made them leave all their belongings and go west. As they settle in Dnipro, they are navigating the hurdles of displacement and war. World Vision's cash assistance helps them cover only part of their medicine expenses, and food supplies.
