This week on Florida Matters, we hear from area residents with close ties to Ukraine who share their perspective on the Russian invasion.
Among the featured voices are the pastor and two parishioners of a local Ukrainian Catholic Church as well as Ivan Cherniavskyi, a University of South Florida student from Ukraine.

Host Steve Newborn also speaks with Justin Clements, a spokesman for Project Dynamo. The Tampa-based civilian rescue organization has been evacuating Ukrainians and Americans living in the country over the past few weeks.
Project Dynamo found its start by evacuating people from Afghanistan last year after the country's fall to the Taliban.
