Maksim Chmerkovskiy: I made it on the train out of Ukraine

Maksim Chmerkovskiy is safe.

The former “Dancing With the Stars” pro informed fans on his Instagram Story Monday that he “made it on the train” out of Ukraine and arrived in Poland amid the Russians’ invasion of Kyiv.

“We’re heading to Warsaw (hopefully). Train to Lviv was not an option. The situation at the train station is insane,” he wrote. “AT first it feels manageable, but it gets A LOT worse when it comes time to actually board the train.”

While keeping details vague, Chmerkovskiy said the situation was “TRAUMATIZING” as he remained in a train cabin with “4 adults and 7 kids (ages 2-11) which usually is only occupied by maximum of 3 people.”

The famed dancer said his wagon was meant to fit up to 30 people but instead crammed 135.

“It’s sweaty and claustrophobic,” he wrote.

In a follow-up video, 42-year-old Chmerkovskiy said they had to disembark the train 30 minutes from the Polish border so it could have its wheels changed.

“Can’t make this up,” he quipped.

Soon after, however, he assured his 1.1 million Instagram followers that he was finally “in Poland.”

The update came hours after Chmerkovskiy, who was in his native Ukraine filming “World of Dance UA,” said he was arrested at one point and trying to figure out how to leave the country.

“I have options. My options are better than most people’s, unfortunately,” he admitted. “I’m a little nervous to be honest with you, but I think it’s going to be all right. Well, I know it’s going to be OK.”

Chmerkovskiy had been splitting his time between Kyiv and Los Angeles, where he lives with wife Peta Murgatroyd and their 5-year-old son, Shai.

“There’s ALWAYS another way! WAR is NEVER an answer,” he captioned a previous video when the Russians first invaded Ukraine last week.

Chmerkovskiy was born in Ukraine in 1980 and moved to the US with his family in 1994.
