Олександр Мацієвський — ім’я, яке має назавжди залишитися в історії України.

Український військовослужбовець, який потрапив у російський полон і перед розстрілом не зрікся своєї країни. Його останні слова — «Слава Україні!» — стали символом мужності, гідності та незламності українського народу.

12 березня 2023 року СБУ офіційно підтвердила його особу. Наступного дня Олександру Мацієвському посмертно присвоїли звання Героя України.

Його історія нагадує, якою дорогою ціною українці виборюють свободу. Саме такі люди заслуговують на пам’ятники у наших містах, на шану наступних поколінь і на те, щоб їхні імена ніколи не були забуті.

Ми повинні розповідати дітям, ким був Олександр Мацієвський і чому його останні слова стали частиною української історії.

Його життя обірвали окупанти, але його мужність залишилася в пам’яті народу.

Олександр Мацієвський. Герой України. Вічна пам’ять і шана.

Героям слава!

Norway has just bought 500.000 drones to be donated to Ukraine. That’s a real ally.

Slava Ukraini!🇳🇴🇺🇦

🙏 There are moments when silence speaks louder than words..
Ukrainians fall to their knees upon the arrival of their fallen soldiers, heads bowed in a silence imbued with both gratitude and sorrow. This is no mere farewell; it is a gesture of respect that words cannot express.

Meet Rima, call sign Stitch, @rima_medUA.

She’s an American frontline combat medic in Ukraine, and she teaches soldiers hands-on tactical medicine.

Before the full-scale invasion, she worked in finance in Illinois. She came to Ukraine in 2022 as a humanitarian volunteer, started medical training in 2023, and worked her way up to the highest level of combat medic certification before enlisting.

Her shifts now happen at medevac and stabilization points, the places where the wounded get their first real chance.

Ask her what the hardest part is and she won’t say blood. She’ll say watching people suffer.

Her real mom still wants her back.

This is what russia does to childhood in Ukraine. You don't hate russia enough.

When Putin seized Crimea, both Europe and America were quite openly making calls, holding meetings, and sending signals to the Ukrainians who were in power at the time that there should be no escalation – let's just keep things friendly and leave things as they are for now. And we lost Crimea. After that, we lost part of Donbas. But the shooting in the east continued. There was no peace.

People think we were always helped. That is not true. Help started coming after the full-scale invasion, but that was after eight years of Russia occupying our territory. That is a long time to figure things out and understand that Putin has no intention of giving anything back to us.

At one point, some Europeans asked me: “Why do you think that if you withdraw from Donbas, he will go further?” And I answered: “Because at the beginning of the war, he wasn't seizing Donbas. He came to the capital. He seized parts of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions, Kherson itself, and Kharkiv region.” We have retaken a lot of territory, but he had seized different parts of our country. And now they want us to give them something because they are unable to seize it. We may have a smaller territory, less money, and fewer weapons, but we still have more dignity than many others. We will do everything we can to end this war, but it must end in a way that preserves our dignity.

Russia is bombing terminally ill children.
This is not war.
This is pure, deliberate cruelty.

💔 Ukraine has lost another young defender.

Diana Horun, a 23-year-old Ukrainian combat medic from Hnizdychiv in the Lviv region, was killed by a Russian drone strike in the Donetsk region.

Born in 2003, Diana served under contract as a senior combat medic in a strike drone company. Despite her young age, she chose to dedicate her life to saving Ukrainian soldiers.

She stood by her fellow soldiers until the very end, fulfilling her duty with courage and devotion.

Just 23 years old. An entire life ahead of her, stolen by Russia's war.

My deepest condolences to Diana's family, friends, and fellow soldiers.

Rest in peace, Diana. Ukraine will never forget your sacrifice. 🇺🇦💔

🇺🇦❤️ He could have spent billions on yachts, mansions, and a life of luxury. Instead, he chose to help Ukraine.

His name is Howard Buffett. He is 71 years old and the son of legendary American billionaire Warren Buffett.

Since Russia's full-scale invasion, his foundation has committed approximately $1.33 BILLION to helping Ukraine!

And these aren't just numbers. Here's what that generosity means:

🍞 642 million meals funded for Ukrainians affected by the war.

🚜 823,000 hectares of farmland cultivated with support from his foundation, helping farmers whose equipment was destroyed by Russia.

🦾 $77 million for Superhumans, helping wounded Ukrainian soldiers and civilians receive prosthetics and rehabilitation.

💣 $167 million for demining, clearing Ukrainian land of deadly Russian explosives.

🏠 344,000 windows replaced in war-damaged buildings.

📚 $8.9 million to restore Kharkiv's Factor-Druk printing house after a Russian missile strike.

And here's something even more remarkable:

🇺🇦 Howard Buffett has personally visited Ukraine 27 times!

He visits devastated communities, meets farmers, and witnesses the consequences of Russia's war firsthand.

In December 2023, his name was added to Kyiv's Walk of the Brave.

But his greatest legacy isn't a monument. It's the lives saved, homes rebuilt, fields cultivated, and Ukrainians given hope again.

❤️ The world has plenty of wealthy people. Far fewer are willing to devote their wealth, time, and hearts to helping strangers thousands of miles away.

Thank you, Howard Buffett. Ukraine will never forget your kindness. 🇺🇦🇺🇸

She was just 33. russia murdered her.

On October 29, Anna Braha shielded her niece during a russian missile strike on Kremenchuk, saving her life. Anna didn't survive.

She died saving a child. Her own 4-year-old twins, Yehor and Ksyusha, are now left without their mother.
