ODESSA, UKRAINE - NOVEMBER 16 2005: 11 year old Yura who was abandoned when his parents divorced and then brought to shelter by his drunk grandmother who didn't want him, ran away and lived on the streets. Whilst living in a derelict building which caught fire, suspected by many to be an arson attack, Yura was very badly burned and will remain in hospital for one more week following 9 operations over a 2 month period. It is as yet unclear what his fate will be on release from hospital.
