SLOVYANSK, Ukraine — It was a trip no mother would wish to take. But faced with few options, a group of women and children piled into a blue minivan on a recent day to take to the dangerous road out of town on the way to a safer place.
The journey would pass through pro-Russian and Ukrainian Army checkpoints, and a no man’s land in between. The passengers’ only protection was a sheet, painted with the words “children, children, children,” that was taped around the minivan.
