Prince Harry visits Ukraine

Prince Harry has made a surprise visit to Ukraine to spotlight humanitarian landmine clearance efforts and reaffirm his support for the nation.

The Duke of Sussex walked through a minefield near Bucha, emulating a famous 1997 walk by his mother, Princess Diana.

During the trip, Harry declared he would 'always be part of the Royal Family' despite his ongoing rift with the monarchy.

The visit was coordinated with the HALO Trust to raise awareness of the long-term dangers posed by unexploded ordnance in conflict zones.
