SALT LAKE CITY — A Utah family is getting support from the community as they try to help their extended relatives escape the violence in Ukraine.
Dallin Hunt, who also works at Weave, said during lunch he watched a video of a Ukrainian dad on Twitter who was saying goodbye to his wife and his daughter. Salamatin's husband Igor grew up in Ukraine and has been in the states for six years. Marlie has other ties to Ukraine after serving an LDS mission there.
Igor says he’s worried if they don’t get out soon enough, his 50-year-old father could be drafted, which could also compromise the rest of his family leaving.“I have fear that if my dad gets drafted, that my mom and brother won’t be able to leave,” said Igor.
