Juan Tec of Los Angeles was teaching and living with his family in Ukraine when the Russian invasion began.
Why is Russia attacking Ukraine? Experts say Vladimir Putin's reason to invade Ukraine is simple and steeped in history.
Tec packed up whatever could fit in their car, and as they flee, he tries to keep his gas tank filled, pulling over when his toddler needs to use the little green training potty that they had to bring along. "We stopped to get gas even though we have like 300 kilometers to go," Tec said."Better safe than sorry.""Just really upset with this whole situation," Tec said."We had a home here and they come and destroy it. They're trying to destroy it. But the Ukrainians are brave and they're standing up and they're fighting back and - we saw some of the military men heading off the opposite side and I just felt a little bit bad. You know, they're fighting.
