Blog: What It Took To Cross Over Into Ukraine Amid An Unreal War

It's a fairly desperate situation now across Ukraine. After trying for several weeks, I was finally able to cross over into the war-hit country today. As we negotiated a particular border crossing in eastern Poland, we came across lots of problems; lots of inspectors, lots of questions, curiosity over why anybody would want to enter Ukraine. But it's something that we have been trying to do now for a while. I was on board the Air India flight on its way to Kyiv which had to return to Delhi because the bombings in the Ukrainian capital forced the closure of airspace. Since then, the situation has deteriorated greatly as has been widely reported and so the goal was to get into the western part of Ukraine which meant crossing over from Poland. Crossing over from Poland this time involved jumping onto the back of a truck belonging to a German NGO, having to stop at least six times, and being questioned several times by inspectors on both the Polish side and on the Ukrainian side.
