Maks, who is in Kyiv while filming Dancing With The Stars Ukraine, is revealing more heartbreaking details about the ongoing conflict.

“I don’t know what my purpose with all this – I’m just saying what I’m seeing,” he says in one of the videos, adding, “I’m giving you my best impression of what it actually is.”

He did reveal that some of his friends were shot at in their car as they fled to the Poland-Ukraine border, and it took one friend around eight hours to make it out.

“It seems that the Ukrainian army is doing an incredible job at stopping any kind of advancement of Russian forces,” Maks shared, adding that one of his main concerns is getting children to safety, as well as making sure the elderly are taken care of.

“I don’t know the answer,” he said. “I just want the shooting to stop.”

In his most recent Story, Maks showed fans just how quiet it was outside, but that moments before, sirens had gone off.

“We just heard sirens outside. Everyone’s a little panicked,” he said, adding that he’s about to head to a bomb shelter for safety.

Maks‘ wife, Peta Murgatroyd, asked for prayers for his safety.
