Imagine Dragons and UNITED24 join efforts towards rebuilding Ukraine, by releasing a video shot in Mykolaiv Oblast
During the Imagine Dragons concert in Warsaw, Sashko from Novohryhorivka, Mykolaiv Oblast, who was seen in the band's video for the song Crushed, was invited on stage. The boy unfolded the Ukrainian flag with the UNITED24 logo.
Imagine Dragons music video director, Ty Arnold, met Sashko while on a trip to Ukraine. The boy was roaming around his native village, which was completely destroyed by russian troops. Ty filmed Sashko's story, and it became the basis for the Crushed music video. The boy from Novohryhorivka, Ukraine, became famous all over the world — thousands of people from Australia to Iceland expressed their support to him.
“There is a war waging on in the year 2023, still. There are people fighting for freedom, people fighting for their homes, people fighting for their country, people fighting for their town, their village. There is a boy here tonight who had his home destroyed in Ukraine. His village was wiped out, destroyed, his house — rubble. This is a reality today. We have a dear friend of ours, Ty, who documented this. And now his house is being rebuilt, stone by stone, brick by brick. The least we can do is tell the stories of the people who are fighting, who have lost, but have not lost, who continue.” — Dan Reynolds, Imagine Dragons frontman.

I am so sorry. Please know that the actions of those currently in the presidential office of the USA do NOT speak for all of us living here. We are embarrassed by his brutish and uncompassionate behavior towards the Ukrainian President and his country. Please let us know how we can best stand by you.

Have felt horrified, ashamed, and angry at how our political leaders have treated Ukraine and President Zelensky. The US government has acted in a disgraceful and abhorrent way, so unlike our history. Please know that most people here do not support what is happening. I have flown a Ukrainian flag at my mailbox for the past 3 years and will continue until there is a just peace, which I pray is soon. Slava Ukraini!

We want to demonstrate our support of Ukrainians' heroic defense of homeland against Russian invaders. My family and friends all very much disagree with the current US administration policy decision to pause support of Ukraine. I apologize for the appalling behavior of Trump and Vance.

I am ashamed to call myself an American lately for so many reasons, the most recent being our leaderships bullying tactics in a diplomatic meeting. I am so sorry. Ukrainians and your leader deserve so much better from their allies.

Sticking it to Donald Trump! I (a US woman) am SO SORRY that Orange man and Jd Vance treated you that way Zeleinsky, you are a true man of honour, dignity, and respect. A true leader that fights, stands with, and stands for your people. They will never understand you because they’re nothing like you. Unfortunately, the us has dictators for leaders now.. the us citizens support you but it seems Trump is a puppet. most of us stand with you. Please, you and your country, survive whatever comes! If you and your allies must fight against us, have mercy on the citizens for most of us are stupid and most of us are innocent and don’t want this, and help us all win for democracy! The world stands with you! I want your people to be free! And I also want Americans to be free! Today, that means standing for you because that’s what you stand for!! We’re with you! 🗽❤️🔥🇺🇦
