Sky News has travelled to villages on the front line of the conflict to witness the growing humanitarian crisis.

A significant number of them are now suffering without any running water.

They include the small village of Irmina, where people are being forced to queue for water from a local well and many are struggling to survive without power.

The shelling has been getting closer, food supplies are running low and people are running out of money.

But there is no major rescue effort in the village, located in Lukansk region. Help is not getting through and people say they have seen no humanitarian aid convoys.

"We have no jobs, we have nothing, how can we live?" one man asked.

"Shells were coming down - we were all sitting in the basements."

We met Svetlana Zorina, who works as a nurse at the maternity unit in the next town, queuing for water with her son. She told us she has not been paid since September.

"We have no water, sometimes no light. And they say that the water won't be back for a long time, because a shell hit the pipe," she said.

"They are shelling all the time. Today in the maternity hospital the windows were shaking, during the day and all night."
