Her husband, Saidam, decried the situation in Vinnytsia as "frightening" and "greatly devastating" akin to what he experienced during the various rounds of Israeli assaults on Gaza.
A fourth year medical student, Saidam is keen to return with his wife to Ukraine as soon as the war ends to see his wife's family and to complete their studies.
According to UN estimates, at least 902 civilians have been killed and around 1,459 injured in Ukraine since Russia launched its war on its western neighbor on Feb. 24.
The UN has said the real figures are likely to be much higher as conditions on the ground make verification difficult.
UN data shows over 3.38 million refugees have fled from Ukraine since the war began, while some 6.5 million are estimated to be internally displaced in the country.
