Leonardo DiCaprio Donated $10 Million To Ukraine's Army

Famous Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio has donated 10 million dollars to Ukraine's army, which is engaged in a brutal war with the Russian forces.

The invasion of Ukraine ordered by the Russian president Vladimir Putin has outraged the international community, many stars and famous brands taking a stance in this regard.

Among them is Leonardo DiCaprio, a Hollywood emblem, famous for his role in the movie "Titanic", which has transferred ten million US dollars to the Ukrainian government as the war continues.

According to Ukrinform, which quotes GSA News, most likely, this substantial donation is meant to support war efforts as well as humanitarian efforts in the country. It is the largest sum ever received by the Ukrainian government.

Leonardo DiCaprio has Ukrainian roots through his grandmother and has strongly condemned the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
