Many people in Ukraine are doing their best to evacuate and save their families amidst the Russian invasion.

Ian Umney, an English teacher residing in Manchester, got a call that no one wants to hear from their loved one, per Fox News. His wife told him that Russia had invaded Ukraine.

This terrifying news led to Umney quitting his job and trying to find a way to bring not only his wife but his two-year-old son to safety.

This all started when Umney “was awoken early by his wife who called him and said Russia had invaded and they dropped bombs” calling it “the single, most scariest moment of his life,” he told “America Reports.”

“My heart sank, and I just knew I had to get here. So my family took a few days to calm me down and I worked out a plan, I bought some kits and it took me about two days to get here, but I’m here now” he said.

Currently, where Umney and his family live, Russian forces are fighting but he came up with a plan to evacuate them.

“We plan to go on the train, and then I have some contacts already working in the northwest of the country traveling, ferrying people to the border. I will give them a call and we will go with them. When they get to Poland, they will be met by my mother, who will then take them to safety” he explained.

1 Corinthians 16:13 says, “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.” Umney continued to tell Fox News that he plans to “stay and either continue to help women and children get to the border, or myself, take up arms and defend Ukraine should I need to.”

According to Business Insider, “Ordinary citizens all over Kyiv are taking up arms in the fight against Russian forces.”
