  • last year
At World Youth Day in Lisbon, the Graca church hosts a mass for young pilgrims from Ukraine. One of the group of 500, Olena Shevchuk, says she is getting a welcome break from the pain of the war in her native Ukraine. "There is music everywhere here, cafes and restaurants are open, you can go wherever you want," says the 24-year-old.
