'I needed to go and help. If I didn't help, nobody would help them' Disabled people are forgotten victims of Ukraine, says woman who rescued her paralysed brother
A woman who flew to Ukraine via Poland to rescue her paralysed brother fears "the forgotten causalities of war" are people with disabilities.After waiting 24 hours for it to be processed, she then made her way to Lviv to meet her mother and brother.
Mother-of-two Mrs Florek, 36, left her family as she said she had no choice but to fly to Warsaw on a "whim" as she could no longer "just wait for someone's mercy" at the Home Office, after waiting more than three weeks to hear about her brother's visa. "They are people who are dealing with trauma, desperation; people who have no money; people who've lost loved ones; people who've left them; people with nothing; people trying to find a sponsor, someone who can provide shelter."
