Video has emerged showing a group of mostly Syrian refugee children having an adorable snowball fight with a police officer.
The footage was filmed at a refugee camp in Serbia before ebing uploaded to Facebook by Nemanja Bozovic, who works at the camp.
The video has now been watched more than 700,000 times.
It shows the police officer backed against a wall while bearing the brunt of an icy barrage much to the delight of the youngsters, who are clearly enjoying playing in the snow.
Betraying his fellow officer, another member of the police is seen helping the children by giving them snow balls ready to be thrown at his colleague.
The heart-warming episode happened at a refugee camp at Sid, west of Belgrade on the Croatian border.
