Hanna covered the war from a bunker before fleeing the country to her Lincolnshire hosts
A Ukrainian political and TV news journalist who covered the conflict from a bunker while bomb sirens sounded across Kyiv, has praised the “beautiful UK” for the support she has been given since arriving as a refugee.
Air sirens rang out across the city. “I just went walking to my job – almost 10 kilometres – and all the time the air siren was going off. “It was a very scary situation for me, that first time it was scary when the air sirens rang, but after 10 days people were saying ‘oh it’s not a problem, I can stay at home, I can walk on the street, it’s ok’.”She said it got to the point where people hearing the air raid siren just said “oh my god, I’m so tired, I want to sleep, I just won’t go to the bunker, it’s just not for me, I want sleep, go to hell Russian people”.
What should have been a six hour trip, took a whole day, and when they arrived their parents said they had found a place to escape to in Bulgaria. She applied for a spot for her and Dima’s family and thankfully were able to find generous hosts Helen and Richard Green in Branston.
