  • 11 March 2022, Vyšné Nemecké, Slovakia: Rev. Denisa Vargová of the Evangelical Lutheran church of the Augsburg confession in Slovakia calls a colleague at the Slovakian border, from a storage room in in Pozdišovce, where supples are waiting to be transported to the border crossing at Vyšné Nemecké for distribution to incoming refugees. The Vyšné Nemecké border crossing connects Slovakia with the city of Uzhgorod in Ukraine. Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine began on 24 February, hundreds of thousands of refugees have crossed the border to Slovakia in search of refuge and shelter from war and an increasingly desperate humanitarian situation. The border crossing at Vyšné Nemecké sees up to some 10,000 refugees cross each day, with faith-based and humanitarian organisations providing immediate support to people as they come into Slovakia.
