A young Ukrainian boy who fled to Donegal form his native Ukraine is showing his skills as a talented chess player.

Lukian Hushpit is living at the Bluestack Centre Hostel at Drimarone outside Donegal Town with his mother and two brothers.

Lukian is a Ukrainian Regional Champion Chess Player.

And last weekend he won his section while competing in the Irish Chess Union Spring Tournament held in Sligo.

Lukian, who attends Killian National School, is certain to receive a warm welcome when he returns to class.

We wish him the very best of luck for his future.
