Prince Harry has made a surprise visit to Kyiv after an invitation from the Ukrainian government, saying he wanted to do “everything possible” to help the recovery of the thousands of military personnel who have been seriously injured in the three-year war against Russia.
During the trip to the Ukrainian capital, he and a team from his Invictus Games Foundation are set to detail new initiatives to support the rehabilitation of the wounded, with the eventual aim of providing help to all areas of the country.
Earlier this year it was estimated that the Ukraine war had already left 130,000 people with permanent disabilities – and the government has now put rehabilitation through sport at the heart of its policy for helping veterans.
Speaking to the Guardian on an overnight train to the capital, the Duke of Sussex said: “We cannot stop the war but what we can do is do everything we can to help the recovery process.”
He added: “We can continue to humanise the people involved in this war and what they are going through. We have to keep it in the forefront of people’s minds. I hope this trip will help to bring it home to people because it’s easy to become desensitised to what has been going on.”

Who’s the next power hitter to visit? Kamala?
Coming up on our 250th and we still haven’t got away from these guys?
So it’s just a family reunion.
Elements of the Royal family were always sympathetic to Nazis (Edward VIII and spouse...).
Didn’t Harry get in trouble at one time for wearing a Nazi uniform to a party?
I'm thinking that Harry had to clear this visit through the usual channels. So who gave him the green light? Probably not his father the king.
He should be more concerned with ridding Londonstan of it’s moslem grooming gangs!
“Prince” (lol) Harry. What authority does he have to cosplay some kind of government official? You know he’s not giving away his own money. Invictus would do well to get rid of him rather than be used as his personal PR. How much did his little trip cost charities that could have used $ more responsibly?
I’m also tired of these articles claiming he “founded” the games. I’ve read they were created them to give him something to do.
...........”this is the new Harry, same as the old, old Harry trying to play his one time image of good-time fun chap and a Prince! (nobody in America will bow to him. Must be torture for the chap)”
Yes indeed. Plus, he’s stupid.
Anyone else wondering if that interview with the Guardian was less about a disappointed Harry going off half-cocked again...
Or was it was it a cagily couched threat that if KCIII doesn’t pony up whatever is the Harkles want, they’ll go ahead with a book set to be published in 2026...
Harry did talk about truth telling...
And did mention that the focus over the coming year has to be about his dad...
Okaaaay.
Note to the Palace: If that interview was indeed used to deliver a threat, it’s past time for you lot to channel your inner Arthur Wellesley and tell the Harkles one thing...
Publish and be damned!
Probably a threat,, “give me what I want or I’ll keep coming back.” But he seems to think the people of the UK love him lol. They need to stop him from cosplaying a government/Royal family representative. US government should make it clear he has no influence here either.
