Zimbabwe is giving two-way plane tickets to its citizens who’ve fled Ukraine so that they can return once it’s safer to do so, a top diplomat tells the BBC.
Alice Mashingaidze is Zimbabwe’s ambassador to Poland, Germany, Hungary and Slovakia.
She says her embassy has been working with Zimbabweans in the diaspora who help organise transport for those fleeing Ukraine until they reach the embassy in Poland.
The embassy then takes over, and is organising their onward flights to Zimbabwe.
Ms Mashingaidze says those fleeing have complained about racial segregation at the border. Ukrainian and Polish officials have denied such reports.
