Ukraine: Two British Men Have Gone Missing
The two men had been working as volunteers helping people evacuate from the frontline of the war.
Mr Parry’s family said: “We are very worried and concerned about the health and whereabouts of Chris right now.
“He is an extraordinary person who is compassionate and caring and would not be dissuaded from his work in Ukraine liberating elderly and disabled people, which we are very proud of.
“We, his family and partner, all love him very much and would be grateful if our privacy could be respected at this difficult time.”
Mr Parry, originally from Truro in Cornwall but living in Cheltenham, had travelled to Ukraine last year to do humanitarian work after the Russian invasion.
He said he had a “drive to help” during an interview over Christmas last year.
A missing person’s report had been filed for the two men from the police department in the city of Bakhmut in the Donetsk region at 17:15 local time on Saturday.
Ukrainian police said the men had been in Kramatorsk – where there have been reports of strikes in recent days – but were last seen heading to the small, eastern town of Soledar.
