“They started looking for a safe place. And then this happens”: parents at the school gate unhappy about the death of Ukrainian Matvii (5)

The Ukrainian community in Ghent is in shock after the death of Matvii (5). During stormy weather last Thursday, a fallen branch landed on the playing boy. At the Ukrainian Saturday school, where Matvii romped every weekend, fun has made way for silence and sadness. “This accident should not go unpunished,” says a mother at the school gate.
