However, her children and parents remained in Ukraine. So on February 24, the dancer remembers how a terrible dream. Ekaterina was called at five in the morning by the nanny of the children and, with tears in her eyes, said that Russia had attacked.

" This is some kind of terrible dream.. She cried and said the war had begun. I thought those were the hardest days of our lives. Like hell, I guess. When you feel like there's nothing you can do. You do not understand how to help children, relatives, all of Ukraine. This is how our new story began,"

Therefore, the first thing Kukhar decided was that she immediately needed to take the children out of Ukraine. Her son was taken to Hungary by their close friend.

" And we took Timur from Hungary for his birthday. They walked for eight hours, because the line of cars was 40 km. And he constantly said: " You understand, the war will end, we will go home, because everyone is waiting for me there, but I was planning a grand party. We'll do it? "

Subsequently, she came to France and her daughter. She was brought by a nanny first to Poland, and from there to France.

“Then we spent the night, waiting for our daughter, who was traveling with a nanny on a bed, where they just didn’t spend the night with a small dog, without documents. But I thank Poland that they did everything very clearly, quickly and so with understanding, with warmth in their hearts,"

Now Ekaterina and her husband give charity performances, and her children are safe in France. True, Ekaterina admits that she is worried about her parents, who did not want to leave somewhere and stayed in Kyiv.
