Actor Sean Penn tweeted Monday that he and his colleagues abandoned their car on the side of the road in Ukraine and traveled to the Polish border on foot.
“Myself & two colleagues walked miles to the Polish border after abandoning our car on the side of the road. Almost all the cars in this photo carry women & children only, most without any sign of luggage, and a car their only possession of value,” he wrote.
