President Biden says he has been briefed on the two Americans believed to be missing in Ukraine and stressed that people should not travel to the war-ravaged country to fight Russian troops.
“I have been briefed. We don’t know where they are,” Mr. Biden told reporters Friday. “I want to reiterate: Americans should not be going to Ukraine now. They should not be going to Ukraine.”
Alexander John-Robert Drueke, 39 of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and Andy Tai Ngoc Huynh, 27, from Huntsville, Alabama were fighting alongside Ukrainian forces near Kharkiv and have been missing for nearly a week.
