"I asked russians not to blow it up, there was no need for that. They did what they did. One day, we were on our way to get humanitarian aid, and I saw people from the bridge-building unit. I ran there: what are you going to do? And they said: we are going to rebuild your bridge"
Liubov Ivanivna, a district Headwoman in Kherson Oblast, recalls how difficult this year was for the community. After the occupiers destroyed the bridge across the Inhulets River in May 2022, life seemed to freeze. The residents did not believe it would be rebuilt, and many left.
However, since yesterday, the new bridge is open to everyone. This happened thanks to #UNITED24's regular partner AWT Bavaria as well as the efforts of the State Special Transport Service.
Together, we are strong.

U24 ambassador @TimothyDSnyder opposes russian propaganda on a regular basis. He recently spoke at a meeting of the @UN Security Council, convened by moscow to discuss "russophobia," and explained how russia uses this term to justify its genocide against the Ukrainian people👇🏽
📌 If you stand in russia with a sign saying "no to war," you will be arrested and very likely imprisoned. If you stand in Ukraine with a sign that says "no to war," regardless of what language it is in, nothing will happen to you.
📌 The claim that Ukrainians have to be killed because they have a mental illness known as "russophobia" is bad for Russians, because it educates them in genocide.
It's hard to believe, but the 'Azovstal. A Symbol of Perseverance' project is coming to an end. The last bracelet, created from the final batch of Azovstal plant metal, has been sold. 100,000 pieces were made in total, being sold in 44 countries. #Azovstal#united24

These bracelets are now worn by soldiers, diplomats, politicians, journalists, U24 ambassadors, celebrities, and thousands of people worldwide.
👨🚀@StationCDRKelly is not only a record-breaking astronaut, but also a former professional F-14 fighter-bomber pilot. Before leaving Kyiv, he asked for a meeting with Ukrainian pilots.
We didn't know if it could happen due to missile attack threat. But, everything worked out!
Scott met with Lieutenant General Anatoly Kryvonozhko, Head of Ukraine's Central Air Command, alongside Ukrainian MiG-29 fighter pilots. It was a very warm, friendly and top-secret conversation 😉
They talked about the feats of Ukrainian pilots, their capability to conduct aerial combat against an enemy with superior numbers, how they defended the capital in the first days of the war, and, of course, about the "Ghost of Kyiv." They also discussed F-16 planes, which🇺🇦needs.
The last batch of bracelets from pre-war #Azovstal is finally released!
These final 'Azovstal. A Symbol of Perseverance' bracelets were made from the "BELIEVE IN THE ARMED FORCES OF UKRAINE" letters, which stood at the foot of the largest flag of Ukraine for a month. #united24
Each bracelet costs 1,500 UAH, and is available in Ukraine, as well as the European countries, USA, and Canada. All proceeds from the sale of this last batch will go to the #FleetOfNavalDrones: u24.gov.ua/azovstal
We thank our partners — Metinvest Group, SOVA, Nova Poshta, and ROZETKA — who made this project possible.
Special thanks to the Bickerstaff.764 agency for this heartwarming video❤️
This is #Azovstal. A Symbol of Perseverance: u24.gov.ua/azovstal #united24
These are 32 C-type ambulances. The largest batch was purchased under @ZelenskaUA initiative, thanks to donations made via #united24.
One such ambulance will save hundreds of lives. And here's how👇🏽
📍The portable ALV is suitable for stabilizing both adults and infants. It provides positive pressure during breathing and has a spirometer to determine the patient's breathing capacity.
📍A modern, sensitive capnograph helps the paramedic analyze the condition of ALV-bound patients, aiding the diagnosis of potentially dangerous complications. With this level of monitoring, the ambulance is a true mobile resuscitation station.
Did you know that @StationCDRKelly is not only a #NASA record-holder and a #USNavy captain, but also a former medic? That’s one of the reasons he supports 🇺🇦medical workers.
Here's what the Rocket Man said himself👇🏽 #united24
"In my youth, I worked in emergency medical care as an EMT and ambulance driver and saw with my own eyes how timely medical assistance can save people's lives. Later, as an astronaut, I always performed the role of medical officer in space so medical care is important to me."
"Ukrainian doctors and medical personnel today are real heroes, performing miracles daily and in unbelievably challenging and dangerous conditions. I consider it my duty to support Ukraine as they defend democracy against Russian aggression."
