Natalia and Oksana are two of the many women who have escaped from Ukraine - but are often leaving behind male loved ones, who legally cannot leave.
Natalia's testimony mirrors that of Oksana who's been recording audio diaries since March. She is currently in Brussels."Here, I think that the sounds of the war are a little muffled," she says, adding that people are trying to adapt to their new world.
"For example, my friend's sister, she's a therapist and she does volunteer work for women who suffered from the trauma of being disconnected from their husbands. "When you start thinking about how many families have been influenced by this war, how many people will break up, and how many people will not find ways back to each other, it's just terrifying."
From the creators of Sky News' award-winning Storycast, Ukraine War Diaries is a weekly podcast following those living on Europe's new frontline, and those who have escaped it.
