Heartbreaking Video Shows Ukrainian Father Saying Goodbye to Daughter While He Stays Back to Fight
Since Thursday morning, when President Vladimir Putin ordered a "special military operation" in the neighboring country, strong images of fear, sadness and resilience have emerged from Ukraine.
While many are looking for subway stations and air raid shelters to hide from air raids, several thousand Ukrainians have fled - and continue to flee the country by practical means, by transport or on foot. The video of this massive evacuation of civilians is now becoming viral on social media and shows a grieving father emotionally saying goodbye to his daughter as he sends her to a safe zone while he continues to fight.
