Britain's Prince Harry made an unannounced visit to the Ukrainian capital Kyiv on Thursday, April 23, 2026, in a show of support for the country as it continues to defend itself against Russia's invasion, now in its fifth year.
βItβs good to be back in Ukraine,β Prince Harry said upon his arrival at a Kyiv railway station, according to reports. The visit was not publicly announced in advance for security reasons.
During his visit, Prince Harry met with Ukrainian officials and visited sites affected by the war. The exact details of his itinerary have not been fully disclosed. The trip underscores the continued international attention on Ukraine's struggle.
The visit comes as Ukraine marks over four years since the full-scale Russian invasion began in February 2022. Prince Harry's trip is seen as a gesture of solidarity from the British royal family, though it was undertaken in a private capacity.
