Ukrainian orphans en route to Scotland after landing in UK
The Guardian says a group of 54 Ukrainian orphans fleeing the horrors of Vladimir Putin’s war arrived safely at Heathrow airport on Wednesday night.
None of the children, from orphanages in Dnipro, central Ukraine, had been on a plane before. Aged between two and 18, they ran up and down the aisles, watched TV shows and played with Disney stuffed toys as they escaped the escalating Russian violence.
