The celebrity became the first ambassador to raise funds for the purchase of drones in support of the Ukrainian people.
American actor Mark Hamill, known for his role as Jedi Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars film epic, helped Ukraine build a “drone army” in the fight against Russian aggression. Bloomberg reported this.
It was noted that the celebrity in September 2022 became the ambassador of the United24 platform, which raised funds to support Ukraine, in the war unleashed by Russia.
“It’s very simple: Ukraine needs drones. They determine the outcome of the war, they protect their land, their people, they monitor the border, they are eyes in the sky. I’m really shocked because they give me the this update, at least two or three times a week about what’s going on and they said they’ve received more than 500 drones since I started it,” he said.
It was previously reported that Mark Hamill, who rose to fame with his role as Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars saga, has become the ambassador of the UNITED24 franchise platform.
