People with pneumonia are lying in corridors. They go to the toilet through other patients' wards, and there is a single lamp for the whole corridor, so for a nurse to set up a drip, the patient lights the way with a mobile phone.
Another patient at Kupiansk hospital confirmed the information and sent a video to the Telegram channel "VEKHA (Kharkiv)".
