Operation Safe Passage is officially live 🚨 russian drones are no longer just a frontline threat. They are now reaching Kramatorsk. That means every vehicle is a target, including troop transports, ambulances and logistics and supply trucks. There are no safe roads anymore. We are raising $26,000 USD to...

Drones for soldiers, shelters for schoolchildren, equipment for medics and deminers, rebuilding hospitals, schools, homes, and many other important results.

Hello everyone. I have not fundraised for two months to give my followers a bit of a breather over the holidays. However, requests for aid keep piling up, and I cannot ignore Ukraine’s calls for help. Please share and like. I am starting a new fundraiser for more engineering equipment. Donation link at the end. As Ukraine shifts to heavier use of drones, both ground and aerial, more and more units realize they cannot simply stand in a field, and to operate effectively and safely, they cannot waste time digging positions with shovels. 🪏 Instead of providing reconnaissance, evacuation, resupply, or defense with drones, crews are forced to spend their time digging frozen ground. This is a long and exhausting process, and without proper tools it is almost impossible to build safe positions to operate from. I did not want to publish this video. This UAV battalion recorded it in December and sent it to me asking for help. However, in the current media environment, I feel I have no choice but to publish it to draw attention to the fundraiser. We are raising funds to buy two excavators and two evacuation trucks. The total goal is $120,000. Every donation matters, whether it is $10 or $10,000. donation link:

Ukraine's goal is clear: we will win and provide Ukraine with the power to guarantee a lasting peace. And I thank each and every one of our warriors - everyone who is fighting for Ukraine! I am grateful to all the volunteers who help, to each and every one of them. To all Ukrainians who feel that they are at war and therefore help the defense.

A lot of people have been asking where I am and if I am ok. I am preparing. In two weeks, I will begin my first vacation in nearly two years. I won't be spending it on a beach. I won't be traveling abroad. I won't be resting. Instead, I will walk home. From Maidan and the Alley of Heroes in Kyiv to Kramatorsk. Hundreds of kilometers. Roughly 50 kilometers every day. In the summer heat, where temperatures regularly reach 28°C and above. I have my own health challenges, and there will be days when every step hurts. But compared to what my soldiers endure every day, that discomfort is insignificant. I am doing this because it is easy for the frontline to feel distant when you are not living beside it. For my soldiers, there is no distance. The war is present in every day, every decision, and every kilometer of ground they defend. But my soldiers are still there. They are still defending #Ukraine. They are still living in frontline villages and cities. They are still carrying the weight of a war that most people only see through a screen. Donbas is Ukraine. And Donbas is not some distant place on a map. It is home. My soldiers are former prisoners. Even if they are granted a vacation, it does not look like yours or mine. They will still remain close. They do not get to simply walk away from it. So I am asking for your help. This walk is about awareness, but awareness alone does not keep soldiers alive. Equipment does. Vehicles do. Communications do. Drones do. Recently, our only ground drone struck a mine and was destroyed. That wasn't just a piece of equipment. It was a lifeline. It delivered water. It carried supplies. It reduced risk to the soldiers who depended on it. Now it is gone. And what we have in the field is what we have. That is not a position any unit should be forced into. My goal is to raise a minimum of $50,000 during this journey so that my battalion can continue operating, continue adapting, and continue bringing our people home. Every kilometer I walk is for the soldiers who cannot leave. Every kilometer is for the fallen whose flags stand in the Alley of Heroes. Every kilometer is for Donbas. Every kilometer is for Ukraine. If you can donate, please do. If you cannot donate, share this campaign. Help me carry this message from Kyiv to Kramatorsk. The war is not over. And neither are we. #Support93 #SupportUkraine

I am a #Canadian woman serving as a medic in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. I have seen what this war does up close. I have seen soldiers joke through exhaustion because if they stop laughing, they might break. I have seen villages emptied, animals left behind, homes turned into ruins, and good people carrying more pain than any human should ever have to carry. And still, every day, our people keep going. But courage does not stop drones. Hope does not replace medical supplies, batteries, radios, vehicles, generators, or the equipment that keeps our soldiers alive. That is why I am asking for help. The Alcatraz Battalion needs support urgently. We are fighting with everything we have, but we are constantly short of what we need. Every delay costs us. Every missing piece of equipment puts someone’s son, daughter, husband, wife, brother, sister, or friend in more danger. I know people are tired. I know the world is overwhelmed. I know there are a million causes asking for your attention. But please don’t look away from Ukraine. Behind every fundraiser is a real person trying to survive another day. Behind every donation is a chance that someone comes home alive. Even the smallest amount matters here. It turns into fuel for evacuations. It turns into medical supplies. It turns into batteries, protection, repairs, and time. Sometimes it turns into the difference between life and death. Donate if you can. Share if you can’t. Send this to someone who might help. We are not asking for comfort. We are asking for the tools to keep fighting, keep rescuing, keep holding the line, and keep our people alive. Ukraine is still here. We are still here. And we still need you. #Support93 #SupportUkraine

🐈🇺🇦Small but important campaign to provide net launchers to the 79th Brigade of Ukraine. $2300 required for 3 launchers and 60 nets: PayPal: marshaln111@gmail.com Drones with dropable munitions have become a serious danger on the modern battlefield. They are inexpensive, easy to deploy, and posing a constant threat to soldiers and civilians alike. Still the best means to counter this threat is to physicly destroy or intercept a drone. One of such tools which can be effectivly used are net launchers. These systems can neutralize enemy drones mid-flight, preventing them from causing destruction. We are raising funds to fulfil the request if the Ukraine’s 79th Assault Brigade to equip them with net launcher systems to protect soldiers and save lives. For begging we aim to provide 3 net launching systems and 60 nets from the Ukrainian manufacturer “Ptashka Systems” ( These are relatively inexpensive systems, for all this we need only $2,300. The manufacturer is ready to quickly send the ordered equipment and within a few days after payment the systems will be able to go to the front. Every contribution makes a difference in this fight against one of the most dangerous threats on the battlefield. Donate now to help us protect those who protect us. Together, we can ensure their safety and stop the drones.

I’m with my soldiers and am truly grateful to have so many of you supporting us in the comments. Not only are these packages morale boosters but ice breakers. I am a woman and from #Canada so it’s not always easy to get new soldiers to open up but by the time we got into the blindage I had a line of soldiers waiting to be treated. Every soldier got medical care and some relief but now I have a list of needed items from tools and power stations to braces for knees and elbows. Tomorrow even more new soldiers will arrive and this list will continue to grow. I know there are a lot of fundraisers but I can only speak for my battalion Alcatraz Battalion. When I joined the Armed Forces of Ukraine I made a decision to stop pulling myself in every direction and focus my energy. One frontline, one brigade and in turn helping all the soldiers that fight along side us. A unit can be outfitted but if the battalion is without, their combat effectiveness is impacted. If one blindage has power and comms and the next along the trench line is without, their combat effectiveness is impacted. In 2024 I spoke in the Netherlands about strategically placing aid along the 0 line and this is exactly what I meant. I need your help more than ever to turn these lists into equipment and supplies. Please don’t be indifferent, our freedom is depending on it. #Support93 #SupportUkraine

Rogin: It looks very likely that we're about to restart bombing of Iran. And there are a lot of reports out there that this is about to happen. And what that means is that all of the problems, not just with the US economy, with the economy of every country in the world, are about to get worse. And it means that the Iran war is going to go much longer than otherwise anticipated. And that is a disaster not just for Americans, but for all people. And then if you think about the effects on energy and then manufacturing, and then rates will continue to go up, and then inflation, it's a it's a calamity for the world economy with no strategy whatsoever.

A baby born with a cleft lip in Guatemala now has a brighter future because of a life changing surgery performed by the team at ORCAA. His mother’s fear turned into hope, and today he has the chance to grow up smiling, speaking, and living the life he deserves. But this is not just about the babies. Thousands of children are born every year with cleft lips and palates, and there are so many more people of all ages who are suffering in silence without access to the care they need. I want to help change that. That is why I have partnered with the Smile Back Foundation and Dr. Simon Oh. Together, our mission is to restore as many smiles as possible and bring hope to those who have none. Every dollar really does go a long way, and every single donation creates impact. I am calling on all my friends and followers to join me in this mission. Everyone deserves the chance to smile, to live without pain, and to be proud of who they are. Donate now at SmileBack .org and help us give more people their smile back. Further, together.

We have intel indicating that Russia is preparing a new massive attack. Please pay attention to air raid alerts and stay safe. Air defense and the continued need to help Ukraine protect its skies are our key priorities. I am grateful to every partner, every leader, and every country that is ready to help and that implements our arrangements in full. The PURL initiative must work. This concerns both the United States and Europe. We are pooling funds from our European partners and other friends to purchase missiles, including for Patriot systems. Sufficient supplies depend on America, and we hope that Ukraine will be heard.

In Ukraine, there are two camps. One stands for peace, the other for war. And it’s time we spoke about this openly. I believe the latter are fewer in number, yet far louder than anyone else. Of course — behind them stand enormous funds for propaganda and a license for impunity. They have thousands of talking heads, useful idiots, and people paralyzed by despair. They are ready to intimidate, harass, unleash bots, turn half the nation into “enemies of the people,” lecture and moralize, and teach you that your sons must die for the state. They insist that if you want the war to end, there’s something wrong with you — you’re naïve, stupid, or even insane. They claim there is no corruption, that all Ukrainians must remain poor, and that the conscription officers — which hunt men like animals and are notorious for torture and human rights abuses — are mere “Russian propaganda.” They say peace is impossible solely because of Putin, that the best hero is a dead hero, and that everyone shown on television is telling the truth. And then there’s the eternal message: “Just endure a little longer.” A few more months and we’ll win. Another six months and Russia will run out of resources. One more year and the war will be over. Every autocracy has had its propaganda. And every one operated on the same principle: silence, destroy, and hound the critics — while filling the media with the “right” people and the “right” messages. This summer, the last attempt this year to end the war will be made. It will be presented as American pressure, a betrayal of the Ukrainian people, especially Zelenskyy, or collaboration with Russia. They notice only the negative, and only when it’s time to shift blame onto someone else. As you may have noticed, according to Zelenskyy, everyone is guilty. Biden is guilty for talking about war and sowing panic. The West is guilty for not giving weapons on time. Trump is guilty for negotiating with Putin and trying to bring everyone to the table. Ukrainian men are guilty for not wanting to go to the front. Refugees are guilty for leaving and thus not being patriots. Critics are guilty because Ukraine is losing because of them. Deputy ministers, ministers, and long-time partners are guilty as they were caught in corruption. The only ones who are never guilty… are two specific people. I won’t name them. So this time, once again, everyone will be blamed. Zelenskyy will face a choice: either drag the war out further, or once again play the role of the unfortunate victim who, under pressure, is forced to do the unforgivable. We are offered various options to end the war, but our leadership rejects them all. The price of continuing the war is always the same — more rivers of Ukrainian blood, another horrific winter without electricity or heating, and hundreds of thousands more refugees. If this summer there is no peace agreement — any agreement at all — even a shaky ceasefire or a halt to large-scale shelling, the war will drag on at least until March. Because the United States, the only viable mediator and influential player, will be preoccupied with mid-term elections, then winter holidays, and then there will be the fifth anniversary of the war… Once again, we will be told to “endure a little longer,” and once again we will be fed stories about how Russia is about to collapse any day now. The people writing these messages are not stupid. They simply believe that we — all of us — are.

Every autocracy has had its propaganda. And every one operated on the same principle: silence, destroy, and hound the critics — while filling the media with the “right” people and the “right” messages. This summer, the last attempt this year to end the war will be made. It will be presented as American pressure, a betrayal of the Ukrainian people, especially Zelenskyy, or collaboration with Russia. They notice only the negative, and only when it’s time to shift blame onto someone else. As you may have noticed, according to Zelenskyy, everyone is guilty. Biden is guilty for talking about war and sowing panic. The West is guilty for not giving weapons on time. Trump is guilty for negotiating with Putin and trying to bring everyone to the table. Ukrainian men are guilty for not wanting to go to the front. Refugees are guilty for leaving and thus not being patriots. Critics are guilty because Ukraine is losing because of them. Deputy ministers, ministers, and long-time partners are guilty as they were caught in corruption. The only ones who are never guilty… are two specific people. I won’t name them. So this time, once again, everyone will be blamed. Zelenskyy will face a choice: either drag the war out further, or once again play the role of the unfortunate victim who, under pressure, is forced to do the unforgivable. We are offered various options to end the war, but our leadership rejects them all. The price of continuing the war is always the same — more rivers of Ukrainian blood, another horrific winter without electricity or heating, and hundreds of thousands more refugees. If this summer there is no peace agreement — any agreement at all — even a shaky ceasefire or a halt to large-scale shelling, the war will drag on at least until March. Because the United States, the only viable mediator and influential player, will be preoccupied with mid-term elections, then winter holidays, and then there will be the fifth anniversary of the war… Once again, we will be told to “endure a little longer,” and once again we will be fed stories about how Russia is about to collapse any day now. The people writing these messages are not stupid. They simply believe that we — all of us — are.

I am rested, and although my face is swollen, I am in good spirits. I want to thank every single person following my journey across Ukraine, sharing my story, and supporting my soldiers. Because in the end, this is not about how far I can walk. It is about the men still fighting in Donetsk Oblast while the world slowly looks away. My soldiers are still in the trenches. Their positions are still being destroyed. They are still fighting, sacrificing, and holding the line every hour of every day. Even when we cannot physically stand beside them, we can make sure they know they are not alone. Every donation helps us replace destroyed equipment, rebuild positions, and give my soldiers what they need to survive and return home. Every share keeps their faces, their sacrifices, and the fight for Donetsk Oblast in front of the world. Please donate. Please share. Please keep walking beside me, so the men I am walking for know that people are still standing with them. They deserve to know they have not been forgotten. #StandWithUkraine

I am in a place where I cannot record but please do not forget: I am a Junior Sergeant in the Alcatraz Battalion battalion, a #Canadian, and a Senior Combat Medic in the Armed Forces of #Ukraine. We are at a critical point. Right now, we still have a window to move equipment into our positions before the fields dry and the enemy can push harder and faster. We urgently need everything from power stations to ground drones and the tools that keep our soldiers alive and effective on the front. This moment matters. What we do now will shape what happens next. Do not be indifferent. Share this. Talk about it. Support it. Donate if you can: Every contribution directly helps us hold the line. #Suppor93 #SupportUkraine

I see posts about me, I don’t care. Do you know why? Because here we do not have the luxury to listen to outsiders and their drama. My battalion needs your help: Yesterday journalists were killed at our gas station. Today a drone hit our train station. Drones are outside as I write this, KAB’s are rattling the windows. Russians are killing Ukrainians every day and our focus needs to be on how to save as many people here as possible. My focus is on Donetsk Oblast, my home for the last two years. My focus is on my men, my city and my neighbours. That is why this shipment is so important. We know the fires are coming, and now we have a way to put them out. Find your frontline, your foundation, your fundraiser, and commit 100%. Every share, every comment, every $ helps to save Ukraine. #Support93 #SupportUkraine
