'I feel an obligation to save every life,' the rabbi organizing the effort says.
Civilians who arrived the night before in Kyiv board buses for the border with Moldova on March 19. KYIV, Ukraine — A fleet of white vans pulled up to central Kyiv in darkness just after 9 p.m.
Azman estimated that the effort has cost an average of about $100,000 a day since the war began, with a single bus costing upward of $20,000 because of current shortages. In all, he said, the humanitarian effort has cost nearly $2 million. Ukraine’s Jewish community has long faced violent discrimination — including pogroms and the horrors of the Holocaust — that prompted many Jewish Ukrainians to emigrate out of the country.
Daria Kudra, 42, who traveled with her two children, said she witnessed an airstrike damage a school that was being used as a shelter. “Some kids were wounded,” she said. “I saw people taking kids out from the shelter.” For nine days in a shelter under a telecommunications building, 148 adults and 26 children shared a single toilet, she said. They fed their pets bread and porridge and shivered from the cold. Then a volunteer offered a way out: the convoy organized by Azman and his colleagues. They jumped at the chance, fearing that if they stayed behind, they might not make it out alive.
