Operation Solidarity – Day 54

to our friends,

We faced the situation when many comrades wish to help people in Ukraine, but have strong pacifistic position and have doubts about donating to ›Operation Solidarity‹. We totally understand the reasons of your concern, ethical component so we decided to start separate fundraising company for needs of refugees & war victims only. For this purpose we have created a PayPal account — helpwarvictimsua@riseup.net
Now it’s easier to help our civilian friends, who have no ability to rehabilitate by themselves because of the war in Ukraine. We will provide them with:

  • transportation
  • means of communication
  • accommodation
  • medicine
  • food
  • clothes
  • legal assistance
  • psychological assistance
  • assistance to family members of the victims

An overview of our donation options can be found on our donation page.

further we reported about the solidarity work of unionists in poland:

The number of refugees from Ukraine to Europe has already exceeded 4 million, more than 2.4 million of whom are in Poland. Thousands of Poles are selflessly supporting Ukrainian families. But there is a problem: just two weeks after the Russian invasion began, apartment rental prices in Poland rose by 30%, hurting the ability of both Poles and Ukrainians to rent. Our comrades from the trade union Inicjatywa Pracownicza call for a halt to the speculative rise in housing prices under conditions of war and the establishment of fair pricing.

Operation Solidarity – Day 53

to our friends,

we are always happy when people send us pictures of graffiti and murals in solidarity – like this recent picture from berlin:

also we reported on telegram that some of our supplies arrived at anarchist comrades:

More and more anti-authoritarians are joining the territorial defense. It is good to see our comrades wearing the armor that Operation Solidarity has given them.

Operation Solidarity – Day 52

to our friends,

we have received a new solidarity photo from barcelona – worldwide solidarity against the russian war of aggression!

we also reported on telegram about rather unusual support:

As the Russian Orthodox Church praises the aggressive war (Patriarch Gundyaev recently presented the icon to the head of the National Guard of Russia that “should inspire young soldiers who take the oath”), activists from the Satanic Temple are looking for options to help the Ukrainian people: collect donations for refugees accommodation.

The Satanic Temple is formally a religious organization that advocates church and state separation. It’s based on humanistic and rational values (empathy, scientific approach to the world’s knowledge), promotes critical thinking, and postulates the freedom of the individual as the highest value. In 2019, a documentary about the organization was premiered at Sundance.

One month ago, the pope called upon the whole world to pray for Ukraine. And upon the ones responsible for the war – to end it immediately. Just imagine what kind of evil we have to deal with if we are supported both by Christians and Satanists.
