    An undated handout picture shows comic illustrations drawn by Karina Ivashchenko, 14, as a way to channel her fear and overcome war trauma, amid Russia's invasion of the country, in Mariupol, Ukraine obtained by Reuters on March 31, 2022. The story reads: "Terrible blasts. Houses are burning, tanks are standing. I do not know whether my friends are alive?Will I survive? The whole basement is shaking. The streets are said to have windows blown out and it is completely terrible. My grandmother and grandfather are at home, I do not know if they are okay. I cannot express it in words. Everyone stays in basement now. We do not know what to expect." Oleg Ivashchenko/Handout via REUTERS
