The number of patients being admitted to Ukrainian hospitals has been rising constantly since the beginning of the war. Doctors there need any qualified help they can get.
Moldovan surgeon Ilie Suharschi has been volunteering in Ukrainian hospitals ever since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. He drives to Dnipro, and sometimes Odesa, every month, leaving his family behind in the Moldovan capital, Chisinau.
