At the plaza, about two dozen Ukrainian Americans and supporters gathered with flags, framed photographs of family members and handheld signs bearing messages such as, “#Stand with Ukraine” and “NO WAR.” Another read, “Today’s freedom is under attack.” Others there wore the blue and yellow colors of the Ukrainian flag, and one woman wore a traditional Ukrainian flower crown, known as vinok.
“His 16-year-old daughter is screaming and crying, ‘Daddy I don’t want to die.’ My other friend has a small baby who has a fever. She went to the pharmacy — pharmacies are closed. It is a humanitarian crisis for no reason,” Khrystyuk said with tears in her eyes.
