  • 17 March 2022, Sculeni, Romania: Social worker Zota Ionut Lucian, coordinator at an AIDRom support point by the Sculeni border crossing connecting Romania and Moldova. The border crossing at Sculeni, near Iasi, Romania, serves as an entry-point for Ukrainian refugees fleeing the atrocities of war caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. Located at Romania’s eastern border, the crossing sees Ukrainian refugees enter Romania after passage through Moldova. As war wages on in Ukraine, the influx of refugees across Europe varies geographically depending on what cities are currently under attack in Ukraine. If the city of Odessa comes under heavy fire, large numbers of Ukrainian refugees are expected to take the route into Romania via the crossing at Sculeni.
