Be happy again with my family in Kyiv
STORY: Millions of Ukrainians are fleeing the horrors of war in their country. More people will also arrive at this border crossing in south-eastern Poland on Monday. One of them is 15-year-old Bohdan. “I think I can feel better in Poland,” he says, but he worries about his parents who stayed in Kyiv. “My father is frail. That’s why they couldn’t go to Poland or any other country. And mom has to help him.” The youth came with the support of an organization from Ukraine. Now he wants to stay in Poland until he can return home, at least that’s the hope. “Maybe I can go there in a month, and then Putin will be dead and there will be no problem. And I will be happy with my family and the others in Kyiv.” Bohdan tells us how to make phone calls.
Bohdan Shkoda is 15 years old and fled Ukraine before the war. His parents are still in Kyiv.
