A Ukrainian woman has shared that her 67-year-old mother escaped the occupied city of Oleshky in the Kherson region on foot. She says the elderly woman walked more than 20 kilometres along mined roads after deciding a week ago to leave the blockaded city, where travelling by car was not possible. The account highlights the dangers civilians still face trying to flee Russian-occupied parts of southern Ukraine.
