As Ukraine retakes territory, villagers in liberated Kherson talk about their precarious life under Russian rule.
"Those Russians said they were liberators, they just started robbing us," said Fedir Derhun, who lives in a part of the southern Kherson region.
The 69-year-old said he "nearly died of hunger" during the Russian occupation, and added that they took his car, furniture, and mattresses.
Nearly every house on his street has been damaged, and there is still no power or water, with locals relying on volunteers for food.
