they can get to Europe because they are white enough. Its not an open air prison in the same way Gaza is.

Russian bombing campaign is nothing like Gaza. Gazans can't obtain Israeli citizenship, Palestinian passports aren't widely recognized. Meanwhile both Ukrainian and Russian passports are internationally recognized.

unless they accept Russian "citizenship", that is

A citizenship is a citizenship. No need for quotes, Russian citizens can get Russian passports, get access to Russian benefits and travel.

Stop making silly comparisons.

The only people who can be compared to the situation Palestinians are in right now are Rohingya Muslims.

No shit, nothing is the same way Gaza is. Doesn't make it a non-issue. And "citizenship" deserves quotes if it's enforced by an invading military.

Also, good luck getting to anywhere, when all airports and major roads leading out of the occupied territory are blocked and/or destroyed.

Ukrainian militias have been shelling Donbas for about 8 years before 2022.
