AUSTIN, Texas — On Saturday, Ukrainian immigrants to Austin are organizing a second protest against Russia's invasion of Ukraine at the Texas Capitol, starting at 12 p.m.
Some of the protesters spoke ahead of Saturday's rally, recalling what they've been going through since Russian President Vladimir Putin launched the military operation into Ukraine.
"We started reading the news and we see the explosions in our hometown, which is Kharkiv," Max Korabelsky said Friday. "It's like one moment, like all your life changes, you know, it's just one of these moments. We were really afraid that I can say that I was, I was never afraid like that before."
