‘How could I leave?’: woman refuses to leave Ukraine front without her animals


Bilytske (Ukraine) (AFP) – As soon as Raisa walks out of her house in eastern Ukraine, she is quickly joined by a pack of hungry dogs whose barking fails to drown out the sound of artillery. “I get up every day, make food for the animals, then go to work,” says the 65-year-old, refusing to leave the city without the 20 dogs and 50-something cats under her care.
