With pandemic restrictions hindering cross-border travel all around the world, one group of Russian diplomats has found a unique way to return home.
Eight employees of the Russian embassy in North Korea and their families, including a three-year-old child, were pictured travelling on a hand-pushed rail trolley.
Russia's foreign ministry said in a Facebook post the group had started their "long and difficult journey to get home" on Thursday.
"Borders have been closed for more than a year and passenger traffic has been stopped," the ministry said.
