Ukrainian girl hiding in underground bunker sings 'Let it Go' in heartbreaking clip

A video of a Ukrainian girl singing the classic Frozen hit Let it Go in an underground bunker has gone viral.

Amelia is one of over 100,000 children currently sheltering from Russian attacks in Ukraine.

The footage has been shared over 100,000 times on Facebook since it was first posted over the weekend.

In the clip, Amelia belts out a version of 'Let It Go' in Ukrainian for those sheltering in the bunker.

People are seen lying on the floor, while others stand or sit around Amelia.

Cities like Kyiv, Mariupol and Kharkiv have been continuously bombed and attacked since Vladimir Putin ordered the "special military operation" on February 24.

'Dozens' of children have been killed in Ukraine as a result of Russian attacks, according to UNICEF.

Three of those came overnight after air strikes killed a mother and her kids while they were attempting to flee the country.

UNICEF spokesperson James Elder told RTE Morning Ireland of the 'harrowing' situation.

He said: "Over the weekend, we sent tonnes of emergency medical equipment into 50 hospitals. They're the hospitals where people are working in bunkers and basements.

"That's surgical kits, oxygen, midwifery kits and such. Tonnes and tonnes will continue to flow in. The need continues to outstrip the supply.

"People do not have fresh water and rivers are frozen. They're going days without it. The attacks continue, we see children killed overnight as they tried to flee."
