Humanitarian AidIzium residents wait in line for humanitarian aid

Dozens of residents of the eastern Ukrainian city of Izium gathered to receive food packages and other aid on Wednesday as electricity, gas and running water remained cut off in the city.

Volunteers distributed bread, apples, toiletries and other necessities as people scrambled to receive the much-needed aid. Few stores are operating in Izium, and many of those who have stayed in the city have little money to purchase necessary goods.

Residents on Wednesday browsed through boxes and crates of donated clothing on the town's central square, preparing for colder weather that is coming even as many homes have damaged roofs and windows and no electricity or gas for heating.
