Last I heard was that they knocked off power and water. Earlier today they wouldn’t let the wives deliver food.

Standard procedure in a siege: No food or water allowed in, so that the besieged must surrender or starve.

Ukraine does have its own Mi-8/17 Hips and Mi-24 Hinds. It might be worthwhile to try to fly in supplies via helicopter. The Russians would have to open fire to stop the airlift which they likely don’t want to do.
