I'm from the US, and arrived in Ukraine, Kiev on the 23rd. I chose to go to UKR because I wanted to save my friends. We faced a lot of problems along the way, we saw some bombs going off in Kiev city (we were far away) and nearby, people desperately trying to get out of the country, intense firefights, civilian and military vehicles destroyed, military aircraft destroyed and on fire, some places abandoned and/or destroyed. We also saw some dead people, we helped some people who were injured, we took some with us. I was able to do these things because I had some contacts in the region and they helped me there. We cut several paths and arrived in Hungary on the 27th, and at the moment we are in Germany (my friends and I). The four people who came with us chose another path.

We're better. While we were traveling, we recorded some bizarre stuff that deserves to be shared with the world, I'll probably post it on YT. _

What a remarkable and resilient nation 🇺🇦
Hang in there Ukrainians, victory will be yours.

This situation is very sad but these images of Ukrainians stepping up to face the fight and not leaving their homeland is the empitomy of bravery and courage, everyone should have the right to self defense against oppression and tyranny. I hope that the Palestinians are taking notes from the Ukrainians on how to face off against oppression. .🇺🇦🇵🇸

[Dejaelvicio]

they are no longer civilian casualties.

[Mohsinjavid]

This is how Palestinian and Syrians fight the oppressors. And west call them terrorists.

[viethungle]

Americans should realize how lucky they are to be allowed to purchase, keep, and practice with firearms.

[almightymanshadow]

If they use weapons they ain't more civilians .

[smac]

The bravery of the Ukraine people is inspiring.

Civilian volunteers? These Civilian volunteers are considered "armed combatants" and can be legally killed on the battlefield.

War is messy but there is too much propaganda going around in this one and I have some serious concerns regarding how Ukraine is going about it, especially when it's arming civilians who aren't reservists or militias.

America : play the game
Russia : join the game
UN : Afk
Ukraina : first blood

[mrshoushou]

When the people in Syria and Iraq learn how to use AK or self-making beer bottle weapon, they were called terrorists, but in Ukraine, these people have a new name, called hero or country protector. Interesting politics

Lot's Of Love And Support From India.. God Be Always With You! Ukrainian Brothers And Sisters.

most of the men are not allowed to leave the city its hard to say whether they volunteered or made them volunteer this is bad
