Stocking up on cured sausages from the half-empty shelves in her local supermarket, Valentyna Sveshnikova is worried about money. The 68-year-old grandmother lives off her small pension and has already noticed the cost of several goods increase, including sausages. Russia wants “to make our life miserable and impossible. And they’re actually succeeding in it,” she says.
Russian strikes on food warehouses and logistics supply chains around several Ukrainian cities have left gaps on supermarket shelves and risk causing price increases.
