A teacher has told of how she has not heard from her cousins since her home country was invaded by the Russians on February 24. Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine has been widely condemned around the world, with countries imposing economic sanctions and sending support to aid Ukraine in their fight.
Nadia Hannam, 42, headteacher of Birstall Primary Academy and interim principal of Boothroyd Primary Academy, West Yorkshire has not heard from her relatives since the invasion began, reports Yorkshire Live.
Speaking at an event on Sunday, she said: “I have relatives in Ukraine, cousins of mine, who we have not been able to contact since all this started. It’s upsetting to not know their whereabouts at the moment. You just feel so powerless and I I feel really sorry for the soldiers who have become sacrificial lambs.
