An Irishman who brought a Ukrainian family to Ireland after making a humanitarian mission to the border said he couldn’t leave them behind after hearing their grandmother plead for their safety.
Trevor Geraghty, who is originally from Gorey, Co Wexford, and now lives in Edinburgh, Scotland, picked up Elizaveta Shyshorina and her children Oleksandr, 15, Kyrylo, 13, and Polina, 8, at the Ukrainian-Polish border last Thursday.
The family fled from Zaporizhzhia, where Russians have taken over the nuclear plant, and arrived in Ireland with Trevor on Monday morning.
