11-year-old boy flees 1,200km from Ukraine to safety in Slovakia by himself

Hassan was given food and drink by volunteers and his relatives were then contacted in Bratislava

His mother, in a video posted by Slovak police, thanked everyone for taking care of her son and explained why he had travelled across the country when it was in the grip of a Russian invasion. The nuclear power station at Zaporizhzhia is the biggest in Europe. It was seized by Russia's military over the weekend after an attack that President Volodymyr Zelensky warned could have caused destruction on a scale far bigger than the Chernobyl disaster in 1986.

The official said he had used a phone number written on the boy's hand, as well as a piece of paper he had in his pocket, to contact relatives in the Slovak capital who came to pick him up.
