Clive has revealed he had been stuck at the Romanian border for eight hours.
Tweeting about his progress, he wrote: “After 17 or so hours drive in all from Kyiv, heading south then west, then into Moldova to the frontier, we arrive at the queue to cross from Moldova to Romania.
“This was to become a long night. We are less than 2miles from the crossing…”
In another tweet, he said: “A full 8hours later, we travel the less than 2miles to cross into Romania with the leaflet saying ‘if you are Ukrainian you have the right to enter Romania and you will be protected!’”
“It was a long, day of driving and queuing to get out of Kyiv. Imagine having to leave all you know in a hurry because you’re being shelled.”
