Yevgen Chornomordenko took off with a sprint when the Ukrainian father of two saw the GPS coordinates from his wife’s cellphone draw nearer to the border crossing into Poland
MEDYKA, Poland -- The Ukrainian father of two took off with a sprint when he saw the GPS coordinates from his wife’s cellphone draw nearer to the border crossing into Poland.
Yevgen Chornomordenko had been waiting for 11 days on the Polish side of the border for his wife, Alina, and two children to arrive from the Ukrainian capital, which had woken up to Russian shelling on Feb. 24.
War had broken out at home just days after his arrival in the Polish city of Wroclow, near Germany, for a job installing solar panels.
“I never believed war would start,’’ Chornomordenko said, as he checked the GPS position of his arriving family.
