The Russian invasion of Ukraine has left the globe worried. While the attack is steadily evolving, massive explosions and sounds of bombing have been heard.

Amid the crisis, thousands of Ukrainian natives are forced to leave their homes and flee to neighbouring countries for basic help.

Hollywood celebs Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have stepped up against the current situation of Ukraine.

They took to Twitter and pledged to match $1 million for Ukrainian refugees.

After thousands of Ukrainians were left homeless amid the Russian invasion, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have promised to match $1 million to assist the refugees.

Ryan wrote in a twitter post, “In 48 hours, countless Ukrainians were forced to flee their homes to neighboring countries. They need protection. When you donate, we’ll match it up to $1,000,000, creating double the support (sic).”

Blake Lively posted a heartbreaking photo about the current state of refugees and wrote, “@vancityreynolds and I are doubling every dollar donated to @usaforunhcr up to $1,000,000 link in bio to donate @usaforunhcr is on the ground helping the 50,000+ Ukrainians who had to flee their homes in less than 48 hours.

@usaforunhcr is providing life-saving aid, and also working with neighboring countries to ensure protection for these families (sic).”

Today, February 28, marks the fifth day since Russian President Vladimir Putin declared war on Ukraine.

This has resulted in fighting and airstrikes across the country. As per Ukraine, 352 civilians have been killed ever since Russia invaded the European country.

On Sunday, Ukraine agreed to hold peace talks with Russia at the Belarus border.
