Psychiatric patients struggle to get through Ukraine conflict

SLOVYANOSERBSK, Ukraine (Reuters) - Anna Tsvirinko takes her hand out of the jacket she is wearing over her nurse's uniform to keep warm and points at a dirty mattress in the unheated ward of the Ukrainian psychiatric hospital where she works.

    "That's where a woman who died last night was lying," she says, estimating she was the 50th patient to die at the hospital since the conflict between pro-Russian separatists and Ukrainian government forces began in April.
