While many of us were settling in for a well-deserved break over the Christmas and New Year period, the mission with Nowzad Ukraine didn’t stop for a single second. As we kick off the first proper working week of 2026, we wanted to share exactly what our team has been up to on the frontlines there. Nowzad’s very own Vet Tech “Wonder Woman” Angela, has spent the last few weeks in the heart of the conflict zones in Ukraine. Operating in the Mykolaiv and Nikopol regions, she has been working tirel
