UKRAINE - Ukraine crisis: Crimean 'refugees' in Lviv

2014-05-08 56

Since Russia annexed Crimea in March, thousands of people have left the peninsula. They're mostly Ukrainian speakers and Crimean Tatars. Many of them have fled to Lviv, in western Ukraine. Locals there have been helpful, offering accommodation and other support, but the reporters we sent to Lviv found that the authorities are struggling to cope with the influx.
