Since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, at least 1.5 million people have fled the country, including many children.

Some, unfortunately, are forced to embark on this arduous journey on their own. Most refugees seek refuge in Poland, while others seek refuge in Hungary, Slovakia, Moldova and Romania.

The CNN crew recorded a small child crying as he crossed the Ukrainian border with Poland. The tearful child walks in front of the group of adults carrying a plastic bag and a few things in his hand.

"It looks incredibly small, isolated from other families who are also fleeing the war," CNN reported.

"I hope God sees this," reads the description of the video, which is being shared on social media.
