Days. train rides, bus rides, walking long distances in the freezing cold, sleeping outside at times. when we crossed over from the border from poland, i think it was yesterday or two days -- i guess yesterday morning, i mean, there were hundreds of people waiting. there was an elderly man who were told had died at the border checkpoint from making the journey. i dont know if it was a heart attack or exhaustion, but he was covered with a tarp. it is just a chaotic scene. im wondering, where do t...

Came across the border yesterday, trace back to the one border checkpoint we came through was a couple of miles and well north of 20 miles of the previous few days. what seems to be happening, obviously no ukrainian men age 60 out. they are supposed to stay and fight so just women and children. it feels like the polish authorities are simply waving them through to get them through as quickly as possible. another quick point, trace, the number of checkpoints clearly increasing. they are manned an...
