This event will take place in-person at the St. Volodymyr Institute, 620 Spadina Avenue, Toronto, ON, M5S 2H4.
Front-line medic Brandon Mitchell shared a first-hand account of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the online war, and the support those on the ground have been receiving. He discussed what’s working and what’s not, and offered a candid perspective on the invasion from the ground.
A 20-minute video “Soledar: Ukraine, Truth about the fallen British volunteers and what happened”, revealed the front-line situation in Soledar, Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine in January 2023, and the determined efforts of Hospitallers volunteers to evacuate civilians remaining in Soledar.
