A video of a little girl singing "Let it Go" from the Disney hit "Frozen" in a Ukrainian shelter during Russia's invasion has prompted praise from the musical's star.

Marta Smekhova, who first shared the video to Facebook on March 3, said it was taken in a shelter in the capital, Kyiv. Insider was unable to independently verify the video.

Smekhova said she had permission from the girl's mother to film and publish the clip, and identified the girl as Amelia.

"Even men couldn't hold back tears," Smekhova wrote.

The girl's performance caught the attention of Disney stars, including Idina Menzel, who performed the song in "Frozen."

"We see you. We really, really see you," Menzel tweeted, adding two hearts in blue and yellow, the colors of the Ukrainian flag.

The composer Kristen Anderson-Lopez, who wrote the song with her husband Robert Lopez, also tweeted: "Dear Little Girl with the beautiful voice, My husband and I wrote this song as part of a story about healing a family in pain. The way you sing it is like a magic trick that spreads the light in your heart and heals everyone who hears it."

"Keep singing! We are listening!"

Robert Iger, the former CEO of the Walt Disney Company, also shared the video on Tuesday and said: "This will break your heart."

Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, and as of Tuesday, the violence showed no signs of slowing. Follow Insider's live blog for more updates.
