Ukrainian Family Walks Across Polish Border To Escape Attack - 1 minute video

“As Russia launches attacks on Ukraine by air, sea, and land, citizens have made the hard choice: to stay or leave. This Ukrainian couple and their young children have packed their luggage and are walking across the border to Poland.

[Man:] We’re going here to Poland and we then may probably go to Cyprus, to our friends, to stay [until] the bombing situation comes down a little bit.

Friends and family members have let them know about their experiences since the Russian military operations started.

[Woman:] And you know, our friends, everybody is in Kiev now and they’re calling us and telling [us] what is going on, and it’s awful. My husband told me that I’m panicking, and it won’t happen, and now it’s true, and this is absolutely incredible.

Poland sits on Ukraine’s northwestern border. Poland’s parliament has pledged to support Ukraine and already has refugee centers ready for those who need to flee. World leaders have spoken out against Russia as Ukraine’s government has asked for help.

[Oksana Markarova, Ukraine Ambassador to the United States:] The President also speaks to all the leaders and all the leaders of the free world. And we call for everyone to form the anti-Putin coalition to stop Mr. Putin and to stop this attack on Ukraine.
