    Watch how they are threatening to shoot us! We are currently at the Ukraine -Poland border. Their Police and Army refused to let Africans cross they only allow Ukrainian. Some have slept here for 2 days under this scorching cold weather, while many have gone back to Lviv. pic.twitter.com/47YG4gxFC4

        My dear @CardinalDinardo, can you please contact your Polish counterparts to expedite alleviation of these students' suffering? These black and brown university students have been waiting for days at the Ukraine border.

        There are some concerns that there's disinformation directed at Africans. Can anyone help to translate the video of figure out where it was filmed?
