Joni Eareckson Tada says the disabled are often abandoned in war zones and have trouble accessing traditional shelters like those in underground subway stations.

"Some of these people with disabilities are in critical situations living in basements or perhaps living on sixth seventh or eighth floor of apartment building," she said. "They're paralyzed. They can't escape. They can't rush to the border."

She and her team are working with a Ukrainian church that has set up a bomb shelter in the basement, fortifying their windows with sand bags. The group is planning more rescue operations in the coming days, vowing to scour the countryside in search of disabled people who need safe passage to escape Russian soldiers who are on the move."

“Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the town and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind, and the lame.… Go out to the roads and country lanes and compel them to come in, so that my house will be full.” Luke 14:21, 23
