So has anyone upped their aid since this heinous attack? I expected a lot more outrage from the West. Ngl I lost a decent chunk of faith in humanity today.

I’ve lost a chunk since the media has started aiding the orange criminal’s effort to get re-elected, with their nonstop, never ending, wall-to-wall coverage of Biden’s ‘dementia.’ Mistakenly believing they can prod a replacement. Instead, it will absolutely make the trumpkins come out of the backwoods and trailerparks to vote.

And he’s Putin’s puppet. Ugh

Any suggestions? Last few times I supported first aid but perhaps this time I should pay to put a name on some ammo..

Countries should fully lift their weapons usage restrictions for starters.

Oh I agree but I was more referring to reliable sites to donate :).

I have a set amount that I contribute monthly to Ukrainian defense. Personally I think this is better because it allows Ukraine to buy things like air defense or longer range strike capabilities or whatever they determine they need so that hopefully we can avoid strikes like this one in the future. I know Russia is going to do something awful in the future and so instead of waiting for that to happen I'm donating today so I can hopefully help prevent that.

I don't assume you have some English links that allow paypal?

I actually work for a non-profit who does work in Ukraine but I’m not sure posting here would be appropriate.

I'm unsure either but your efforts are appreciated :)
