Ukrainian Refugee, 11, Crosses Slovak Border Alone

An 11-year-old boy from Ukraine has crossed the border into Slovakia with just a plastic bag, a passport and a telephone number written on his hand, Slovak police said Sunday.

"He came all alone from Zaporizhzhia because his parents had to stay in Ukraine," police spokeswoman Denisa Bardyova told AFP.

I'm so glad there were family members able to take him in at the end of his journey.
