‘Not safe for our children!’ Mothers with kids flee Kiev crackdown in Lugansk — RT News

A mother anxiously hugs her baby, a teenager fears for his father staying in the besieged city, and a little girl doesn’t know why her grandpa can’t come on the bus. These refugees are just some of those fleeing Lugansk to escape Kiev’s crackdown.

“It is not safe for them [children] to stay here after everything that is happening. We want them to stay alive,” a crying woman hugging her small daughter close to her heart told RT’s Paula Slier, who spoke to refugees from the eastern Ukrainian city of Lugansk.

The refugees have been forced to leave the troubled city since Kiev intensified the military crackdown on the country’s east. Now families, packing their bags into buses and crying, are leaving for an uncertain future.

“We don’t know what will happen there and for how long this situation will continue. We want to return home as quickly as possible,” Olga, another refugee, told RT.

The residents have been on the waiting list for days. One woman told RT that she received a phone call in the morning which told her that she had less than four hours to pack her things and leave Lugansk.
