About this episode

An estimated 3-million Ukrainians have been on the move, leaving their homes.......their cities.......and often the country entirely, to avoid getting caught in the middle of Russia's ongoing invasion. With that number of refugees growing by the day, we've been bringing you the stories of Ukraine's civilians taking extreme measures to escape the war. We'll bring you one more very personal story today.

We will also get you up-to-date on a busy weekend of activity in and around Ukraine, where President Biden seemingly called for regime change in Russia; and the Russian military struck closer yet to NATO territory, with a missile strike just a few miles away from the Polish border.
