Strictly Come Dancing’s Motsi Mabuse has pleaded with people not to forget the Black refugees stranded at the Ukraine border, amid the ongoing Russian invasion.
Filippo Grandi, the organisation’s High Commissioner for Refugees, acknowledged their plight during a press conference on Tuesday afternoon.
“We’re still stranded, we haven’t eaten, no rest, we were just in the cold for six hours outside,” one woman says.
“We’ve been begging, pushing, dragging, it’s been so traumatic just to get into the border and we’re not able to get there.”
