    Since Russia invaded Ukraine a year ago, foreign volunteers have been pouring into the country to help the Ukrainians resist the Russians.
    Kyiv has gotten a lot of weapons from NATO countries, but Ukraine's forces also need basic stuff like personal protective equipment or training for soldiers. The volunteers do whatever's needed.
    GZERO caught up with two members of Ukraine's international legion. One of them is a former bike messenger from Germany who now operates drones. We also met an American who helps crowdsource funding from Europe.
    It's not an easy life. What's more, they know they could end up dying - and say they are ready for it.

    not just birds, it depends on where in the world you are and time of day or night, like at night if the bugs, crickets are making noise then they haven't heard or seen anything but that don't mean someone or something like a predator isn't around. or if your on fire watch and still and silent and the bugs or animals suddenly go quiet then something just showed up.

      Check the pricetag for a humvee and consider the fact that you can loose dozens of them within a week (which means you need spare parts to repair them and pay salaries to mechanics). The same goes for simple stuff as radios, drones, and even batteries for them. War is expensive. Simple as that.

    According to Council on Foreign Relations "Sanctions have had only a limited effect, as India, and others continue to purchase Russian energy" Also India is a massive coal user and a democracy. Does it not behoove us to help India and others go greener faster? Shouldn't democracies stick together? Isn't it a win win for the planet, and democracy to help these countries go greener faster?

      Billions are not sent directly to Ukraine. Mostly they are paid for the weapons and to the manufacturers in your own countries. And foreign funds cant be spend on military salaries etc. On top Ukraine is not as wealthy and big as russia to afford such full scale war so of cause we are lucking everything. But never the less considering everything Ukraine achieved a lot already. And we are grateful for all the help we are getting.

      @Bernie Sully but America also profits from this war (ie. Weapons and defense manufacturing and distribution, political instability, alliances and sanctioning measures, intelligence and data gathering via satellites and drones, etc).
      Also Most of the modern technological advances that we use are a by-product of war.
      War in some way is an American business (think about the military industrial complex and the arms race with nuclear weapons and rocketry). it's a nation that thrives during global conflicts...
