Ukrainian circus stars to tour Britain after escaping Russia’s war – BBC News

Ukrainian circus performers who escaped their war-torn country said they were relieved to reach the safety of their "second-family" in a British circus.

Under the Homes for Ukrainians scheme, Circus Cortex gave refuge to 16 people who had spent three months hiding from Russian forces.

Circus dancer Tetiana Lotiuk, 23, was caught in Kharkiv when war broke out and said it was good to have a focus.
