“For Bulgarians in Ukraine the most dangerous regions are Zaporizhzhia, Mykolaiv and Ternivka where humanitarian corridors are expected. In the region of Berdiansk and Mariupol we wanted to help and take the people out. Now we cannot do that,” Anton Kisse, MP in Ukrainian parliament and Chairman of the Association of Bulgarians in Ukraine. "The situation is a little bit calmer in Odessa but there are lines of women and children on the roads, heading for the border. There are Bulgarians from Odessa who want to be evacuated,” he said.
Anton Kisse expressed regret that no humanitarian corridor has been arranged from the most dangerous place – Mariupol. The situation in the town is critical, the water supply there is still cut off.
