In Donetsk, a Russian refugee no one wanted in Crimea was an influential person, traded real estate, and also created an organization to protect the rights of media workers. Now he lives in his car, this is the only valuable thing he managed to save.

“I’ve been sleeping in the car for the 32nd day now,” says the man. “I once had everything, now I have nothing, essentially I’m homeless and not a single agency here wants to help me.” I even wrote a statement against the FMS employees to the prosecutor’s office.”

Now Sergei Sokolovsky is trying to get a meeting with the leadership of the department. He has to bathe in Baptist churches and do his laundry there. He is not allowed to spend the night.
