Please give what you can to support @UNICEF and people like Iryna using the donation link in my bio."In the video on his highlights, Iryna explained that normally, "in peacetime," she's the "head of Kharkiv's regional perinatal center and a child anesthesiologist."Since the start of Russia's attack on Ukraine in late February, Iryna explained in later Instagram Story posts, her responsibilities have expanded, "I unload cargo, I work on logistics and I offer emotional support."Opening up about the early days of the invasion, the doctor said that patients were evacuated to the basement, though babies in intensive care had to remain in place, despite the risk, due to immovable life-saving equipment."The first days were the most difficult. We had to learn how to work with bombings and strikes," she said.David and his wife Victoria Beckham previously launched an emergency appeal via his 7 Fund for UNICEF. This nonprofit organization has been on the ground in Ukraine offering immediate aid to children and families affected by the Russian invasion, reported Fox News.Several celebrities including Mila Kunis, Cardi B, Lady Gaga, Andrew Garfield, Mark Ruffalo and Ryan Reynolds have expressed their support for Ukraine.Recently, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry made donations to numerous charities in Ukraine.On February 24, Russia began a military operation in Ukraine, responding to calls for help from the breakaway republics of Donetsk and Luhansk in countering the aggression of Ukrainian troops.
