Prince Harry visits Kyiv

Prince Harry visits Kyiv

Arriving by overnight train from Poland, Prince Harry has returned to Kyiv for his third visit since the start of the war with Russia.

The Duke met with senior military officials and celebrated medical workers, including Yuliia Paievska, to witness firsthand the humanitarian toll of the ongoing struggle.

In an impassioned address, he challenged Russian President Vladimir Putin to 'choose a different course' and stop the intentional targeting of civilians.

His visit comes as international attention has been diverted by the Middle East crisis, prompting Harry to remind the world that Ukraine remains the 'frontline of democracy'.
