A grandfather hugs his granddaughter Arina, 6, as they say goodbye before her evacuation from front line city of Bakhmut, amid Russia's attack on Ukraine, in Donetsk region, Ukraine, January 31, 2023. Arina is one of an estimated 11 million people displaced by the war in Ukraine, according to U.N. figures, that began when Russia invaded in February 2022. As Russian troops occupied the edges of Bakhmut, her mother had asked police to get her daughter out, said Photographer Oleksandr Ratushniak, who spoke to her mother and traveled with the police evacuation team to the home of Arina's paternal grandparents in Bakhmut. The grandparents initially said they did not want the little girl to leave - but eventually concluded it would be for the best. "I understood that Arina's grandparents don't want to let her go because they love her, but in the end, I think they understood that if they love her, they have to let her go," said Ratushniak.
