About two dozen women and children from the embattled city of Luhansk arrived by train on July 9 in Lviv, in the west of Ukraine. Parents said they left Luhansk fearing for the health and safety of their children as fighting intensified in the city between pro-Russian rebels and Ukrainian forces. According to official information, some 3,300 people from Ukraine's southeast have found refuge in Lviv. (RFE/RL's Ukrainian Service)
