Non-Ukrainian refugees wrongly denied free Wales rail travel

BBC News says refugees from Sudan in Wales have been denied free rail travel after staff wrongly told them a new scheme was available only to those from Ukraine.

Last week, the Welsh government said all refugees would qualify for free train travel in Wales for six months.

But one Sudanese man said he was told to buy a ticket to travel from Cardiff to Newport twice in three days.

The Welsh government said all refugees could access the offer within six months of being granted UK status.
