The war in Ukraine has brought many painful moments. Such is the case, where the cameras have filmed newborn babies in a neonatal intensive care unit, who were placed in an improvised shelter in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

The babies were hurriedly transferred to what appeared to be a storage room in the hospital basement, in the eastern part of the country.
The nurses could be seen caring for the babies with some of them holding them in their arms, hugging them, some even smiling.
Others could be seen using oxygen bags to disperse the air to infants who were having difficulty breathing.
The babies, who seemed to be just a few hours or days old, were wrapped in blankets of different colors and laid out on makeshift beds.
