At Ukrainian Border, Overwhelmed Guards, Volunteers Confront Exodus of Refugees Fleeing War – WSJ

Near them, jam-packed sedans running low on gas inched to a modest checkpoint that ordinarily serves a half dozen people at a time, often day-trippers crossing into the duty-free zone to buy cigarettes.
