As foreigners in Ukraine also flee war, some report mistreatment

LA Times  

A student covers herself in blanket at the Medyka border crossing in Poland after fleeing from Ukraine. At a refugee center set up in Bucharest, Romania’s capital, some Indian citizens told the Associated Press on Tuesday that Ukrainian border guards gave fellow Ukrainians priority in getting out of the country and attempted to physically push non-Ukrainians back. Poland’s ambassador to the U.N., Krzysztof Szczerski, said the refugees admitted from Ukraine on Monday morning alone represented 125 countries. “I have worked in refugee crises for almost 40 years, and I have rarely seen such an incredibly fast-rising exodus of people — the largest, surely, within Europe, since the Balkan wars.” The U.N. has estimated that as many as 4 million refugees could leave Ukraine if the war deteriorates further. Sadki’s friend Fatima Arrossufi, who also had been studying architecture in Kharkiv, reported that Ukrainian border guards hit her boyfriend on the head and leg and he was hospitalized in Ukraine.
