On Instagram, the actress posted pictures and a video clip from the New York Times that showed newborns moved from a Ukrainian hospital's neonatal Intensive Care Unit into a makeshift bomb shelter.

The shelter, the video said, was on the lower level of the hospital's building in Dnipro, a city that was the target of Russian missile strikes.

Posting a picture that read, 'The children of Ukraine need peace, desperately, now', the actress wrote. I can not even begin to imagine what the children, parents and people of Ukraine are going through. We are with you Ukraine. Urgent funds are needed… Please donate through the link in my bio."
