23 May 2022, Taganrog, Russia: A woman carries a young child in her arms at the Kotlostroitel Children’s Wellness Centre ”Sunny” in the village of Krasnydesant, near Taganrog in southwest Russia, which following the Russian invasion of Ukraine in late February serves as temporary accommodation for refugees from the Donbas region in eastern Ukraine — most of them women, children and elderly people. While the refugees receive Russian state support for accommodation and meals, the Russian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate) also accompany them, providing spiritual and psychosocial support, as well as processing and responding to individual or more specific requests or needs expressed by the refugees.
