On a morning in February, animal shelter staff were getting changed for their shift when a Russian drone slammed into the centre of their compound in the frontline Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia.
The steel door at the entrance probably saved their lives. More than a dozen animals sheltering at "Give a Paw, Friend" were not so lucky.
"It was terrifying, to put it mildly," says the group's head Iryna Didur.
Residents rushed to help clean up the rubble and catch the animals that had escaped in terror. The local energy company - itself the target of relentless Russian attacks - installed a new steel door.
"We've got very good people here in Zaporizhzhia. A lot of them have been visiting us to help, and we cleared almost all the rubble in three days," Didur tells the BBC.
