In March 2022, as Ukrainians fled their home country after Russia's invasion, a photograph started to circulate on social media that supposedly showed an act of kindness from one of Ukraine's neighbors, Poland. A picture showing a line of seven strollers at a train station was widely shared on social media with the caption: Parents in Poland left their baby strollers in rail road stations for the Ukrainian moms that fled carrying their children. This appears to be a genuine photograph that truly depicts a set of strollers that were left for Ukrainian refugees. This photograph was taken by Francesco Malavolta, a photojournalist covering the conflict in Ukraine. Malavolta posted this photo to his Twitter account on March 3, along with the caption Passeggini lasciati in stazione per le donne in arrivo dall'Ucraina con neonati, which translates from Italian to Strollers left at the station for women arriving from Ukraine with babies. Here's the original post: This photograph was taken at the Przemyśl Główny train station in Poland — the name of the station can be seen on the building in the background — and this station has truly been a destination for Ukrainian refugees. Polskie Radio, Poland's national public-service radio broadcasting organization, reported the following (translated via Google): Here are some additional photographs of the scenes at this Polish train station.
