Here are the innocents of war - little children waiting patiently on camp beds at an official government reception centre in Medyka, Poland, after fleeing their homeland. Some 100,000 people arrived into the country from Ukraine today alone, taking the total to have crossed the shared 332-mile border to nearly 350,000.
And it was tonight believed more than 100,000 more have also fled into neighbouring countries, taking the overall figure to around half a million - a number confirmed by the UN Refugee Agency.
The incredible surge has prompted the Polish government to set up eight reception centres as well as pop-up distribution hubs, including one in the car park of what was formerly a Tesco superstore.
