Russian bombardment turns frontline Kharkiv district into ghost town

Description

After weeks of bombardment by Russian troops, the frontline Saltivka district of Kharkiv has become a ghost town. Most of the locals have fled the incessant Russian air strikes, and those who remain have had to take refuge in underground shelters as they are either too old, too unwell or too disabled to leave.
