Today, as Ukraine marks 35 years of independence, we stand with a nation whose strength continues to inspire us all.

Through Operation Kramatorsk, more than 100 dogs and cats have been brought out of the worst of the fighting. Getting them off the frontlines was a vital first step, but their journey is far from over. Hungry,
