Ukraine War: How baby Mia became 'beacon of hope' amid Russian bombing

• As Russia rained bombs and missiles on Ukraine as it continued the invasion of its neighbouring country, in an air-raid shelter a new life was born. In the war-torn country the birth of Mia, is being seen as the beacon of hope. The child was born around 8.30 pm on Friday as her 23-year-old mother hid from the gunfire that raged outside. A Ukrainian policeman heard the mother’s screams and rushed in to help. Taking to Twitter to share the news of the incredible delivery, Chairwoman of Democracy in Action Conference Hannah Hopko said, "Mia was born in shelter this night in stressful environment- bombing of Kyiv. Her mom is happy after this challenging birth. When Putin kills Ukrainians we call mothers of Russia and Belarus to protest against the Russian war in Ukraine . We defend lives and humanity!"
