- When you are here, you really feel that the war is near.
A while ago the aircraft alarm went off and just before that we heard a fighter jet.
Now we are standing in front of a dormitory that has been hit by some type of rocket fire.
During the trip today, SVT's team met a fateful Ukraine.
- There are not many people out.
But we have seen a lot of Ukrainian military, tanks and helicopters, says Samir Abu Eid.
- And unlike the western parts where it is quite quiet, it is full of roadblocks here.
SVT's team has also met many who are fleeing.
- For example, we met a mother and her daughter who had been in a shelter outside Kyiv for ten days, but were forced out when the food and water ran out.
Now they are on the run.
