Her sister live in Turkey so she has gone there with her children.

Jamala won Eurovision 2016 with a song called 1944 which is about the Soviet (Russian) genocide of the Crimean Tatars. Jamalas great-grandma survived.

Russia was furious that she won so I totally understand her fleeing. She has become an important cultural icon in Ukraine after winning and she is a symbol of Ukrainian resistance against Russia due to 1944.

Yes
She drove for 4 days.

Someone like her would probably not be treated well if captured by the Russian regime.

Unfortunately, yeah. Anyone outspoken like her will be targeted with the worse they can do.
