Prince Harry made a surprise visit to Ukraine yesterday, meeting with war victims at the Superhumans Center in Lviv.
The Duke of Sussex was joined by a contingent from the Invictus Games Foundation, including four veterans who have undergone similar rehabilitation experiences.
His visit to the orthopedic clinic highlights his ongoing commitment to supporting wounded veterans.
The Superhumans Center provides essential services to those affected by the war, offering prosthetics, reconstructive surgery and psychological help free of charge.

The facility treats and rehabilitates both wounded military personnel and civilians who have suffered injuries during the conflict.
The visit to western Ukraine, an area frequently targeted by Russian missiles, was not announced until after Harry had left the country.
Harry's military background has made this cause particularly personal for the 40-year-old royal, who served 10 years in the British Army.

The prince completed two tours in Afghanistan, where he flew missions as an Apache helicopter copilot gunner.
In 2014, Harry founded the Invictus Games to offer wounded veterans the opportunity to compete in sports events similar to the Paralympics.
The Duke's visit to Ukraine came after he spent two days in a London court appealing the British government's decision to remove his government-funded protection.

This security was withdrawn after he stepped back from royal duties in 2020 and relocated with his family to California.
Harry is the second member of the Royal Family to visit Ukraine since Russia's 2022 invasion, following his aunt Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, who made an unannounced visit to Kyiv last year.
Prince William recently met with Ukrainian refugees during a two-day visit to Estonia last month.
