This is how to do it:

Go to https://u24.gov.ua

Make the lives of Ukrainians more safer.

More than 1,000 people have died in Ukraine since the war began due to mine explosions. Approximately 12% of verified mine casualties were children. This is not counting the scores of people who have had their limbs amputated or have been maimed due to mines. Estimates suggest that at least 15,000 people have lost their limbs, with numbers continuing to grow. More than ten million people in Ukraine live in areas in need of mine action assistance. If each of us donates $5 monthly, Ukraine would be much safer.

(text from the post, translated into English):

Anna first wrote to us in early February 2022. We were wedding photographers and it was a classic request for a small wedding shoot. At the time, no one could really imagine the possibility of a full-scale invasion, and despite the anxiety in the air, we all went about our lives.

February 24 changed everything. Vladyslav went to the front, and Anna stayed behind to wait for him. And we, the wedding photographers, turned into war documentarians.

When the turmoil of the first days of the war gave way to at least relative stability, Vladyslav and Anna started planning their wedding again. They were supposed to get married on August 7: it was their special date.

However, a few days before the celebration, during an assault, Vlad was seriously wounded. Doctors were sure that he would not survive. He woke up in intensive care on August 6, the day before the wedding.

The perfect moment is the one right now. Anna and Vlad decided not to postpone their wedding any longer, and played it right in the hospital, as soon as the guy's condition stabilized a bit. It happened yesterday, on September 7, in the circle of family, close friends, hospital staff and just caring people.

There is a lot of treatment and rehabilitation ahead, but we are confident that Anna and Vlad will be fine. You can see it in the way they look at each other, the story of their happiness is already read in their eyes.

Little Vasyl is crying near the memory stele with a photo of his elder brother. Yehor Mukha from Rivne was only 19 years old. He served in the "Da Vinci Wolves" special unit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and was killed fighting with Russian invaders near Bakhmut.

Your chance to win an Ukrainian flag, signed by Imagine Dragons and rebuild Ukraine

During the Imagine Dragons concert in Warsaw, Sashko from Novohryhorivka, Mykolaiv Oblast, who was seen in the band's video for the song Crushed, was invited on stage. The boy unfolded the Ukrainian flag with the UNITED24 logo. This flag, signed by the band, will be raffled off among all those who make a charitable donation.

Imagine Dragons music video director, Ty Arnold, met Sashko while on a trip to Ukraine. The boy was roaming around his native village, which was completely destroyed by russian troops. Ty filmed Sashko's story, and it became the basis for the Crushed music video. The boy from Novohryhorivka, Ukraine, became famous all over the world — thousands of people from Australia to Iceland expressed their support to him. 

“There is a war waging on in the year 2023, still. There are people fighting for freedom, people fighting for their homes, people fighting for their country, people fighting for their town, their village. There is a boy here tonight who had his home destroyed in Ukraine. His village was wiped out, destroyed, his house — rubble. This is a reality today. We have a dear friend of ours, Ty, who documented this. And now his house is being rebuilt, stone by stone, brick by brick. The least we can do is tell the stories of the people who are fighting, who have lost, but have not lost, who continue.” — Dan Reynolds, Imagine Dragons frontman.

The flag with band autographs will be raffled off for a $24 donation to rebuild Ukraine.

So, I've been watching the latest Ruzzian melodrama and I want to share the comments that made me laugh.

Let's start with a classic:

But don't worry the situation is under control... I'm sure...

And Moscow defense is stuff of legends:
