The city of Donetsk, population over 1 mil, is now besieged for as half year, with bombings, large swath of population leaving, lacking water and/or electricity for prolonged periods of time, supply of all things unreliable and a lot of armed men of various agendas around. One thing that didn't happen to it is "apocalyptic breakdown of society". It seems to still tick on with rather normal human life. I think those fears are blown out of proportions for societies that don't already have large debt of latent structural damage.
