People & Pets of Ukraine Struggling to Survive Without Heat During Coldest Winter in Years

People & Pets of Ukraine Struggling to Survive Without Heat During Coldest Winter in Years

People and pets of Ukraine are fighting to stay alive as attacks continue and temperatures plummet and remain below freezing.

They are afraid, cold, and in need of our support.

This winter is one of the coldest in over a decade with temperatures dropping as low as -15°F for extended periods. This endangers the lives of people and animals without proper shelter and heat.

Windows in many buildings and homes have been shattered by missile strikes and people are struggling to keep their homes insulated. To make matters worse, there are scheduled power outages due to the repeated Russian attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure. 

This means families and pets are left without electricity, heat, and water.

Pet food supplies are still dangerously low. Shelters and caretakers rely on this food to feed the hungry homeless animals. Evacuated animals continue to arrive at crowded shelters while caretakers risk their lives to feed those near the frontlines.

Many of the residents left behind in war zones are elderly. During a recent distribution of blankets and essential supplies to people in need in war zones, one woman shared the struggles many face. 

Aid does not often reach these areas that are so close to the frontlines with drones soaring overhead targeting civilians and humanitarian efforts. The residents are beyond grateful for the support. 

Watch the video below captured by Zachary Tarrant to hear from one of the recipients.
