Hope he can be treated kindly.
The little boy in front of the camera
0 In Ukraine on March 5, a British journalist took a picture of a Ukrainian boy sad alone in the Polish border city of Medica, a Ukrainian refugee. In the video, the little boy walks alone on the street, holding a bag with a doll in his hand. It is obvious that he has no family to accompany him, he is alone, crying while walking, and the picture is heartbreaking.
shot of the little boy's lonely back. After crossing the Ukrainian border, I don't know if he can find his family or be taken care of. I really hope that he and his family are just separated. In addition, according to the report of the US media CNN reporter, the child may be only 4 years old.
CNN reported in the video that more than 360 citizens in Ukraine have died in conflict. At present, this number has reached 420+
The most terrifying thing is not experiencing a disaster, but falling from beauty to disaster.
The Medica area of Poland is one of the gates for Ukrainian refugees to escape to Poland, and it is also the busiest gates in Poland in recent days.
In the video released by the Polish Border Defense Force, women and children are everywhere.
Due to Ukraine's martial law, men have to stay in Ukraine.
A reporter interviewed a woman who fled to Poland. She couldn't help crying when talking about her homeland and said she was unwilling to leave her originally happy family.
"I don't want to leave my country because we (my family) have a happy home and a happy life. Now I am separated from our family." When she said this, she lost control of her emotions, choked and tears flowed down. "It's very desperate (you know what), I hope everything will be fine and will be fine in the future."
British reporter recorded the "busy" scene of the Medica bus hub. Thousands of people will take government-sponsored buses here. They will receive humanitarian assistance provided by the Polish government and be assigned to families and private enterprises in various places.

Piano sound, gunfire, warmth and cold
An Italian-born German pianist, Davide, after hearing that Ukrainian refugees poured into Medica, Poland, came over from Germany with his piano. He said that he wanted to give some comfort to the refugees. Even in Europe, he is not a very powerful pianist, nor is he a "top" internet celebrity. But from March 4th to yesterday's 9th, he had been shot in the cold wind for five days.
"They came from Ukraine, I think they've heard too much fire and explosions, and now, I hope they can hear some music," Davide said.
It is now in March. The maximum temperature during the day is less than 5 degrees Celsius and will drop below zero at night. Spring in Eastern Europe is a bit like winter in Beijing. Cold, long trekking, these will only make the refugees' physical condition worse; and Davide's hands are also cold and terrible when playing the piano all day in this weather. But David understood that it was precisely because of the cold with his hands that he could understand how powerful warmth he needed to pop up to embrace these wandering souls.
I hope that when these tens of thousands of refugees passed by this piano, after listening to the pianist's performance, although their hands were still red and their ears might be frozen, the cold deep in their hearts could disappear.
is hard to imagine, these things happen in the same time and space as us: not history, not the past, but the present.
It is worth noting that this simple piano was designed by him ingeniously. The logo that looks like the Paris Tower is actually the most commonly used "anti-war logo" in Europe. At that time, it was invented by the British Holden in 1958 as a protest against the nuclear weapons movement. After the 2015 Paris serial attacks, it has gradually been widely adopted by the world.
As of March 9, the Russian side announced that the Russian army had entered a "silent state" for the second time. At the same time, the Russian Ministry of Defense claimed that more than 120 tons of humanitarian rescue supplies had arrived in Ukraine, while it was 30 tons before.
As of March 9, Beijing time, the total number of Ukrainian refugees received by European countries has exceeded 2.2 million.
Polish border guard said: Since Russia began its "invasion" on February 24, more than 1.3 million people have entered Poland from Ukraine. Most Ukrainian refugees chose to flee to Poland after the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Russia, Belarus , Moldova , Hungary, Romanian and Slovak , among which Poland accounts for the most important part.
The past is no longer there, fragmented
Population growth is always closely related to the rise and fall of a country. In history, Ukraine was once glorious. During the former Soviet Union, it had the best agricultural, educational resources and military power in the country. In 2000, Ukraine's population reached its peak since the continuous growth of the former Soviet Union: 49 million; the time entered the summer of 2021. According to data released by the World Bank , Ukraine's population was only 41 million. In March 2022, as the Russian-Ukraine conflict entered a white-hot stage, industry insiders estimate that Ukraine's domestic population has been less than 37 million, and the entire country has been broken.
The border between Poland and Ukraine is 500 kilometers, and it receives the largest number of refugees from Ukraine. Since the beginning of the war, the vast majority of the 1.7 million Ukrainian refugees have been accepted by Poland. After entering the Polish checkpoint, these refugees will first rest in the tents of the refugee camp, and the humanitarian assistance work is mainly responsible for the volunteers of the non-governmental organization and various Polish municipalities.
As the Russian-Ukraine conflict entered the 17th day of theory, most parts of Ukraine were affected, and the people fled Ukraine on a small scale at the beginning to become a vast refugee brigade today. On Tuesday alone, 42,000 people arrived from Ukraine to to Poland," said the Polish border guard on the same day. Most people arriving in Poland then found short-term accommodation provided by local families and private enterprises.
Poland has announced plans to set up a fund of 8 billion Polish zloty (11.2 billion yuan) for those who fled Ukraine, including a one-time payment of 300 zloty (420 yuan) per refugee.
1000 zloty,” the Polish government said on Tuesday. "This will provide funding for the most urgent supply and accommodation, while also providing funding for access to the labour market, social welfare and education."
The Polish government plans to launch a "Aid Package" to fund food and temporary accommodation while taking measures to enable refugees to work legally and obtain public health care and social assistance. The bill will also provide one-time benefits for each refugee and provide financial assistance to Polish families who host Ukrainian .
United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees Philip Grandi expressed his gratitude to Polish Prime Minister Matt Ush Molawitski, who said he "a warm welcome to refugees from Ukraine."
Ukrainian refugees cross the border and come to the refugee camp. They have to rush to travel for at least 48 hours
Medica is currently the busiest crossing point. When the border guards distribute hot tea, food and toiletries to refugees, boxes of clothes are placed along the path. In the nearby town of Przemehir, NGOs say people need rest, food and warmth.
reporters in Przemehir said that from Ukraine to border crossing, Ukrainian refugees need to trek for 48 hours. Need to have a place to keep warm and sleep. She said a supermarket 20 kilometers from the border has been opened to refugees to provide short-term subsidies and stays, and Polish authorities are sending transportation to provide assistance to these refugees.
"At the train station, volunteers will distribute sleeping bags. Families with babies need strollers. Some refugees in poor conditions are almost frozen, and some are not wearing shoes. But most people carry big bags of bags," said the reporter.
Tips : In the end, Poland's current official currency is Polish Zloty, which is different from most EU countries using the euro. The EU area is not entirely the euro area. Countries such as Poland, Czech , Romania and other countries still use their own currencies. On the one hand, their own prices are relatively cheap and the interest rate level is also low, which is conducive to attracting foreign investment; on the other hand, due to distrust of the volatility of the euro, these countries are accustomed to using their own currencies to intervene in exchange rate, thereby reducing national financial risks.
