Inside Ukraine, preparing for invasion in a border town

Today, we are taking you to Novoiavorivsk, a small town outside Lviv, Ukraine near the Polish border. Reporter Johanna Chisholm spent time there over the weekend, speaking with the townspeople on the different ways this war is both tearing them apart and banding them together; the ways in which they attempt to help each other and search inward for personal resolve. People who would ordinarily find themselves clocking in for work are now part of a well-oiled machine sewing balaclavas, watching check points or helping out in any big or small way they can. There's a war raging, and they are finding ways to contribute if they can’t be one of the thousands who can pick up arms. Here we bring you the stories from a town on the edge of war and the people who have come together to stand on guard.
