Baby born in UK to refugee family who fled war-torn Ukraine with just a few suitcases

A family of refugees fleeing war-torn Ukraine, who are currently living with a host family in England, has welcomed a baby boy. Mum Iryna Tyshchenko gave birth to little Alex on September 20.

The Tyshchenko's are a family of five. They are part of the arrivals this year who travelled to the UK to seek refuge after Putin's illegal war in Ukraine left them with no choice but to make the heartbreaking decision to leave their home.

Mum Iryna is hopeful about a brighter future for little Alex and his older sisters. The Tyshchenko's are now living a life with a host family in Tarporley, Cheshire - a world away from the war-torn country they had to leave, Cheshire Live reports.
