An emotional vigil for peace and in remembrance of loved ones killed during the war in Ukraine was held in Shropshire today, the first anniversary of the Russian invasion.
More than 50 people held hands in a circle around the war memorial in Shrewsbury's Quarry Park to stand in solidarity with Ukrainian refugees and to remember family members killed.
Stanislav said:"We lived near an army base in Cherkasy and we were spending most of the time in the air raid shelters. We decided we had to leave other members of our family behind to save our daughter.So in September last year the small family packed their lives into three pieces of luggage and fled the country, after getting a visa to come to the UK.
"We were living an amazing life with our plans and dreams but everything has changed for us since February 24, 2022," he said."We are looking forward to going back when the war is over, we miss our family, once the terrorists leave our country." Amanda Jones, the vigil organiser from Shropshire Supports Refugees, invited the crowd, some of whom were draped in the blue and yellow Ukrainian flag, to join hands and think of peace and then to think of all those who had died.
