Refugees from Ukraine have found shelter in a residential hotel in the Czech town of Mladá Boleslav, and among them are Romani women with their children. As soon as the war ends, the Romani refugees say they want to return to Ukraine.

Aid in the residential hotel is being provided to them for now by the Romodrom organization.

"We walked on foot to the border with Slovakia," one of them told ROMEA TV. "From there they brought us to a church in Slovakia and from the church they brought us here," she described, adding that non-Romani people in Ukraine did not provide them with much aid, unlike those in Slovakia.

"We were standing at the front of the line at the border and the non-Roma pushed us to the back, the non-Roma wanted people originally from Africa to cross the border first." one of the Romani refugees. "Thank God we walked across and once we were on the Slovak side, it was much better."

"The children got hot meals and blankets," she described their arrival in Slovakia. "During the journey our children were terribly frozen."
