Our continuous supporter @nother_fella has funded 6 UAVs already. The 1st one was dedicated to his grandfather who flew Wellington bombers. The 2nd is a tribute to his other grandpa, Flying Officer William Fergusson, who flew Mosquitoes and died in combat. Here are the rest👇
This next drone is a tribute to Ruslan, Ukraine's warrior and a friend of our dear supporter and volunteer @IamBohhi. Ruslan was killed defending our country, and we really wish he'll be avenged. This UAV is a good way to do that.
@IamBohhi is also a wonderful daughter, who supports her dad who's fighting for Ukraine as well. This drone is a small token of appreciation to her and her family, who make us all proud.
This next UAV is a companion to the first Walter's drone. His back, actually. To quote our donor: "I like the idea of him rising again and again to fight for🇺🇦"
We like this idea as well.
We knew this day would come. What wasn't implemented for the naval drone, is now a part of #SquaDrone. Enjoy the closure, Fellas🙂

Anastasia Trofimova and the majority of russians wouldn’t see their compatriots’ crimes if we shoved the evidence in their faces. It doesn’t mean we shouldn’t, however.
Don’t listen to russians. Silence their propaganda with facts. Don’t let it spread with impunity.

russian terror won’t stop by itself.
But there is a way you can help protect Ukraine, and save our people — by calling your representatives to supply more #PatriotsForUkraine.
@United24media made a step-by-step guide on how to do this. Use and share it, please

Our donor @Barnett_556 from Malvern🇺🇸got his first tattoo — in honor of Ukraine and his childhood hero @MarkHamill — the Rebel Alliance's Starbird in blue and yellow🇺🇦
But it all started much earlier, when Mark became a U24 ambassador.
🧵1/4👇
2/4 Under the initial announcement post, we received an unusual request from @MontayBayBay: if Mark becomes a NAFO fella, Barnett will get his first tattoo at age 52 to mark the occasion.

At the time, Mark was already supporting Ukraine, and a few hours later he received his first #NAFO avatar (but not the last😉).
Hot Ukrainian borsch is a perfect dish for a cold winter day.
@KatherynWinnick
cooks borsch according to her mother's recipe. Our ambassador is proud of her Ukrainian roots and preserves her family's traditions🇺🇦
We want to share this recipe with you👇

We’re launching a fundraiser to build bomb shelters in 3 schools so that 2,283 children in Ukraine could continue their education.
Join in and get a chance to win one of 10 carol stars:

905 pupils from the age of 6, who travel from 5 neighboring villages, study at the Tatarbunary Lyceum in Odesa Oblast. It has a small shelter; during an air alert, some children are forced to walk 7 minutes to a nearby bomb shelter and sit in a cold, damp room for several hours.
The shelter in the Bolhrad school in Odesa Oblast is too small to fit everyone, so older pupils have to walk 10 minutes to the bomb shelter in the House of Culture. With missile threats and drone attacks, every minute in the open is a life-threatening situation.
23-year-old Mykola lives in Arkhanhelske, Kherson Oblast. In March, he helped sappers demine his native region. Together with his friends, they partook in detecting explosive devices, which russians left behind when they fled.
🧵
"That day, my friend and I were making a detour around the Ivanivka village on tractors. I hit an anti-tank mine and it exploded"
Mykola received shrapnel wounds and a broken leg. He was taken to the hospital, where doctors gave him first aid, and then was transported for surgery
Doctors operated on him for 3 hours, using a C-arm X-ray machine which had been purchased with donations from U24 donors. Thanks to it, the surgeons managed to literally put Mykola's leg back together, piece by piece.
