About 80 Romani refugees from Ukraine have been accommodated in the Hamerský mlýn residential hotel on the Janov housing estate in Litvínov, Czech Republic since 15 April; according to the facility operator, it is not entirely true that not enough food has been made available there. The operator admits that initially just basic foodstuffs were prepared for the refugees, and he also alleges that he was never informed that there would be children in the group.
Additional food for the refugees has been provided by local Romani volunteers. "These people arrived at night between 10 o'clock and two o'clock in the morning, on two buses, and the composition of the group was absolutely diametrically opposed to what we had been told," the operator described the arrival of the refugees to the Romea.cz news server.
