Racheal Siyaolu is one of approximately 1,700 international students trapped in the northeastern Ukrainian city of Sumy Ukraine

Christine Diyaolu, Racheal's sister, said in a statement on social media that the planned evacuation for civilians in Sumy was abandoned after attacks on the city failed to stop.

A Tiktok account that has been providing updates on the failed mission said the volunteers were "raided" by the Russian military and had their front tyres shot out.A recent update stated that they were safe and that locals were assisting them with securing new tyres. However, it is not yet known if they will attempt to re-enter Sumy.

"I wouldn't wish this nightmare on my worst enemy, honest to God. There's still hundreds of students trapped in Sumy, three of them . It's been 10 days.. no improvements?" Christiana added.
