KPRC 2 reporter Zachery Lashway is in Poland this week, exploring the situation there as Ukrainians spill across the border to escape the violence in their home country.
What a day it’s been!! We woke up in Bialystok, met up with a volunteer at an area Baptist church, that’s receiving donations from Texas Baptist Men . She brought us to meet a wonderful family hosting Ukrainian refugees. The family of five lives in a SMALL, walk-up apartment. They are hosting a family of five. Ten people are living in an apartment that I’d say is smaller than 1,000 sq. ft. The family has melded so well. Their story is heartbreaking, tune in to KPRC 2 tomorrow.
We then made the four-plus hour journey north to Bialystok. This is where I am writing to you tonight. It’s a beautiful city. On the way here we took secondary roads. Very bumpy secondary roads. We hugged the border to Ukraine and Belarus on the journey north, never crossing the border. Due west of Ukraine, we passed through two checkpoints where we had to produce our passports to Poland police. We passed more officers in the process of setting up checkpoints.
When we arrived in Chelm, we went directly to the historic district to scout out a LIVE location. If you saw my LIVE reports, you probably noticed how beautiful that part of town is. If not, here are some photos to show you.
After conducting several interviews at the church, we traveled to the border. It took about 20 minutes to get there. When we arrived, I was shooting a video, and immediately a volunteer with an organization that has set up shop at the border to aid refugees asked me not to film. I respected his wishes and listened to him. He expressed great concern for his safety and the safety of others, including the refugees.So, while I will not share that specific video, I will describe to you what we saw.
