More than 100 people gather at candlelight vigil for Ukraine in Balboa Park.
Flags, signs, and plenty of emotions were had at the candlelight vigil on Friday night. Some in attendance have family members who are still in Ukraine amidst the invasion.“To the point my sister waking up the next day at 5 a.m. and they had to hide," Chorna said."You know they had to hide there was bombs coming.”“It’s hard to comprehend. It’s surreal. And you know I’ve already cried my tears. But the truth is I don’t know if he’s going to come back," Chorna said.
“There’s awareness and solidarity because this is ultimately a human rights issue,” Luke Miller, an organizer of the candlelight vigil, said. “We’re devastated in Ukraine, and we really ask for help. We ask for immediate partnership and help,” Chorna said. “Just trying to get as much information as I can, make sense of it because things are moving so fast. The capital Kyiv could fall,” Miller said.
