Ukrainian orphans welcomed in Lithuania shelters
STORY: Now safe in the resort's holiday accommodation the children, aged two to 18, help each other set up lunch or play among the cabins.
The smaller children cried as they left their home, 16-year-old Nazary said. But now that they are settled in at Trakai "I think they like it here."
The United Nations refugee agency has said more 2.3 million people have fled Ukraine since war began, as fighting intensified following Russia's invasion, which Moscow calls a "special operation".
Giedrius Simonavicius, a spokesman for SBA, a business group which provided the resort, said there was "tsunami of goodwill" among Lithuania's population to help Ukrainians.
Trakai's local government is working to provide food, schooling and extra school activities for the orphans, according to its mayor.
