In a step that world leaders have said could “spark the biggest war in Europe since 1945,” Vladimir Putin has ordered Russian forces to attack Ukraine and invade the country.

We would like to hear from people who are leaving Ukraine or have left in recent days due to the situation. How and when did you make the decision to leave? Where are you going? Have you encountered any issues while leaving the country?

We’d also like to hear from foreign nationals who have chosen to stay in the country.
