..."But so many Ukrainians have arrived that a backlog has formed.
In Tijuana, Mexico, across from San Diego, the swelling numbers spurred into action a massive volunteer effort organized by Ukrainian-Americans and others with ties to the region. They established a sprawling makeshift shelter, brought trays of Ukrainian food from Los Angeles and San Diego, and coordinated with immigration agents to shuttle large groups to the border for processing.
Despite their quick mobilization to ensure a measure of comfort for thousands of refugees nearing the end of their journey to safety, their efforts have been overwhelmed by the unending flow of new arrivals.
Here are some of the people whose lives have converged at the U.S.-Mexico border thanks to a war a half a globe away."...

I would not want to be stuck in Tijuana. Chances of survival would be better in Ukraine
