After several weeks of growing tensions, diplomatic sanctions, and ultimately futile attempts to impede President Vladimir Putin’s planned attack, Russia began its invasion of Ukraine early Thursday morning. As nearly 200,000 Russian troops crossed into Ukraine, targeting a number of the country’s key military sites and marking the official start of war, many world leaders warned that the conflict could soon become the biggest in Europe since World War II.
“President Putin has chosen a premeditated war that will bring a catastrophic loss of life and human suffering,” President Joe Bidenin a statement shortly after the attacks began. Mere hours later, the invasion has already caused dozens of deaths in the capital of Kyiv and beyond, and an estimated 100,000 Ukrainian civilians have fled their homes in search of safety.
As news of the invasion—and its consequences for the Ukrainian people—has spread, many have watched in horror, feeling desperate to help. Major protests and demonstrations in support of Ukraine’s right to independence are underway outside of Russian embassies across the globe, with more expected over the weekend, but a handful of organizations are also actively working to provide food, shelter, medical supplies, and support to affected civilians. Here are some ways you can help.
