We have fantastic news – an anonymous donor will automatically double any amount you send to this fundraiser. Every single crown you donate means two for the defense of Ukraine. You now have a unique opportunity to truly multiply the impact of your support.

Shahed drones currently represent a massive problem. Russia regularly uses them to terrorize the civilian population across various locations. According to expert estimates, up to 100 real or decoy drones of this type appear over Ukraine every night. Since the beginning of the war, these machines have certainly killed hundreds, perhaps thousands, of people.

The drone is surprisingly large – 3.5 meters long and 2.5 meters wide. It usually carries a fragmentation warhead weighing 40–50 kilograms and moves through the sky at speeds exceeding 150 km/h. Yet, Shaheds are relatively cheap ($30,000–$50,000 per unit), which is why it makes no sense to shoot them down with air defense missiles or fighter jet missiles, which are many times more expensive and in short supply in Ukraine. Interceptor drones are significantly cheaper (for example, the Sting drone, developed by the Ukrainian group Wild Hornets, costs approximately 2,500 USD per unit), making their use very financially efficient.

Every euro you send to this fundraiser will be automatically doubled by a donor who wishes to remain anonymous.
