The delivery of a massive generator ⚡, from pickup in DK to deployment with a military unit This impressive 380 kVA generator was used in a shopping center in Denmark. Although an older model, it had very few operating hours. Weighing more than eight tons, it was a serious logistical challenge.

Russia is again throwing everything it has on Ukraine. Ballistic, cruise missiles, hypersonic, drones, all targeting energy infrastructure and residential flats, all over the country. And tonight it's below -25! #russisisaterroriststate

Dankjewel voor je steun!

New photos of a russian Lancet drone stuck in a net above the road in the Sloviansk region. One more car and, more important, person's life saved. Please keep supporting our fundraiser to transport more nets to Ukraine! 💙💛 Donation link in the comments.

Bad news from UA: one of the vehicles we delivered was hit by an FPV drone last week and completely burned out.The Opel had only been in service for a few months. The only silver lining: no one was injured.The soldiers had just stepped into a small shop to buy cigarettes.This has saved their lives.

In the past weeks, we have been able to deliver some special equipment to several UA army units:binoculars 🔭,essential tools in the field,with a truly special story behind them. These donations came through Martin Kroon,who reached out to us with his collection of binoculars,sights, and telescopes.

📰 Noordhollands Dagblad reports on Agro Jobs Holland’s support action for Ukraine The regional newspaper published an extensive article about the visit of vlogger and farmer in Ukraine Kees Huizinga. He was in the Wieringermeer last week on behalf of our foundation.

We schreven zojuist al dat het winnende uienkistje op de Nationale Uiendag 🧅 20.000 euro opleverde, maar de totale veiling bracht zelfs 28.500 euro op. Gewoon Wow! Heel veel dank!

Wat een geweldig resultaat! Op de Nationale Uiendag 🧅 leverde de verkiezing van het mooiste #Uienkistje maar liefst 20.000 euro op dat wordt gedoneerd aan De Leeuw Kyiv. Hiermee kunnen wij ontzettend veel goede hulp geven aan Oekraïne! Veel dank aan alle deelnemers. 💙💛

Dank jullie wel voor alle steun en donaties in het afgelopen jaar,die maken écht verschil. 1/9

This is literally at the beginning of our street, 4 flats away from us. Luckily we are not in Kyiv now. A few minutes later, a double tap attack happened, which killed a rescue worker. 😡 Just outrageous! #RussiaIsATerroristState

💙💛 Life-saving aid, even during the holidays 🇺🇦 Just before Christmas, together with our partners Unbreakable Hearts, we once again traveled to eastern Ukraine on a humanitarian mission. We delivered four vehicles, generators, nets, food, and snacks to locations where the need is greatest. (1/5)

🤬 Rusland valt sinds vanochtend de warmtecentrale van Kherson aan. Midden in de winter. Bewust. Doel: een stad zonder warmte achterlaten. Dit is geen oorlog, dit is terreur tegen burgers. #Oekraine #kyiv #Kherson

Op 1e Kerstdag sprak Kees Huizinga op @nporadio1.bsky.social over leven en werken in UA: oorlog dicht bij huis en onzekere internationale steun. 🗣️ “Wíj zijn niet oorlogsmoe. De soldaten aan het front wel, zij verdienen onze steun.” 💙💛 Elke dag hoop op vrede. Elke dag steun voor UA. rb.gy/clwunn

Dear friends, partners, donors, and followers, We wish you all a very merry and safe Christmas, and much happiness, good health, and a just peace in 2026. Many thanks for your unwavering support for Ukraine.

We are making a difference in Ukrainian healthcare! Last month,we received a shipment of hospital beds and rehabilitation chairs from Belgium again.These were transported to the Kirovohrad Regional Hospital,where both civilians and soldiers with war injuries are treated (video link in comment)

Wat een geweldig resultaat van #eventothier voor de stichting van Oleg Lysenko! Meer dan 3,1 miljoen euro voor Ambulances voor Oekraïne! Gefeliciteerd! 💙💛 #SlavaUkraini

Naar aanleiding van onze open brief van Nederlanders in Oekraïne🇺🇦 en betrokken hulporganisaties kwamen er talloze mediareacties. Van @ad.nl tot Café Kockelmann, en van @nieuweoogst.bsky.social tot @eenvandaag.nl , zowel landelijke, regionale als vakmedia doken erop. (1/3) (link in reacties)

Together with our Danish partners Generatorer til Ukraine and Salling Group, we’ll be donating up to 40 used generators from Bilka, føtex, and Netto supermarkets to Ukraine over the coming years. (link to video in comments)

@eenvandaag.nl over Nederlanders in Oekraïne naar aanleiding van onze open brief. Collega's Kees, Guido, en Remco Geerdink in Lviv lieten weten hoe zij de oorlog en de voortdurende raket- en droneaanvallen beleven. Ze hebben vaak maar 6-8 uur stroom, en het water en internet vallen langdurig uit.

Vrijdagavond was Kees Huizinga te gast bij Café Kockelmann naar aanleiding van de open brief van Nederlanders in Oekraïne en hulporganisaties. In een uitgebreid gesprek vertelt hij over raketten en drones die meerdere malen per week over zijn boerderij vliegen en uit de lucht worden geschoten. 1/3

This week, Kees gave a well-attended lecture at the community hall in Glimmen, organized by the Diaconie PKN Noordlaren-Glimmen and Stichting Oud Papier Haren. 💙 Thanks to everyone who joined, more than €14,000 was raised for our support efforts in Ukraine!

Heavy russian attacks on Ukraine again last night. Mainly the western part of the country was targeted, but even in Kyiv the air alert was on during the whole night. As always, residential flats and energy infrastructure were hit 🤬 #RussiaIsATerroristState

Superindringende reportage van @nieuwsuur.nl over 2 Nederlandse dronepiloten die maandenlang zij-aan-zij met de Oekraïners gevochten hebben in de verdediging van Pokrovsk. Ze spraken over de zware omstandigheden en het continue gevaar dat ze liepen om ontdekt en gedood te worden.

💙💛 A remarkable story: an adapted vehicle. We purchased and delivered an adapted bus to a Ukrainian soldier who lost both of his legs in combat. The vehicle has been modified so that the accelerator and brake are operated by hand controls, allowing him to continue driving independently. (1/3)

🚜 In his latest vlog for the agricultural platform Nieuwe Oogst, our colleague Kees Huizinga once again shows what it’s like to be a farmer in Ukraine, in times of war. As often happens, Dutch farmers also visited this week to deliver a car that we later handed over to the Ukrainian army.

Some time ago we acquired a fully equipped ambulance in Belgium. It has now been delivered to Ukraine and officially handed over to the 92nd Airmobile Brigade. This vehicle will help evacuate more wounded quickly and provide life-saving medical care.

"We kunnen het niet in detail schrijven, vertellen, het is te erg, mensen stopen met lezen, zetten de tv uit"

We now also have support from Czechia for our anti-drone net project! The have already financed 4 trucks to Ukraine. Please tag your Czech friends to inform them! www.darujme.cz/projekt/1211...

🚗🇺🇦 This week, we picked up and transported several vehicles purchased in the Netherlands to Ukraine! Thanks to our trusted partner Nina Hapych Transport, everything is handled with great care.

⚡💡 Massive russian strikes on power facilities have left much of Kyiv without electricity tonight. Yet the city endures. #StandWithUkraine

(🔊sound on) Exactly 2 years ago today: Friends of our Ukrainian partners transformed an old #Lada into a buggy for the military and sent us some photos. I couldn't help but adding #TheAteam music and create this video😃.

🎖️ Honorable award for De Leeuw Kyiv! Arno and Guido have received a special medal from the State Special Transport Department of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in recognition of De Leeuw Kyiv’s extensive support for the Ukrainian army. #SupportUkraine #StandWithUkraine #SlavaUkraini

No views at all for this post? Is BlueSky shadowbanning us as well? 🤔

💙💛 October 1 – Defender’s Day of Ukraine Dear friends, Today we honor all the men and women who defend their country with incredible courage against the russian aggressor, and we remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. 1/6

🚗🇺🇦 De Leeuw Kyiv has once again delivered 2 vehicles to Ukraine – and both have taken on a crucial role! 🔹 A Toyota Landcruiser, fitted with a large diesel tank, now serves as a mobile fuel station for a tank brigade. 1/4

Another post on the 200 fire extinguishers that were delivered in Kherson. Much needed with all the strikes that this city has to suffer! Thanks to our partners who made this possible!

Today we handed over another bus, this time to an air defense unit. 🚐⚡ With this vehicle, they can transport supplies & troops faster. As a thank-you, we received a special trophy: a Gerbera drone they shot down just a few days ago over the Cherkasy region. 💙💛 #StandWithUkraine #SlavaUkraini

🎙️ Voor Bureau Buitenland (vanaf 13:25) maakte Michiel Driebergen een indrukwekkende reportage vanuit Druzhkivka. Hij bezocht een markt die kort daarvoor door een Russische aanval was getroffen, met slachtoffers en enorme schade tot gevolg. www.nporadio1.nl/uitzendingen...

Partners Charity Fund Kischentsi have delivered a quad bike to a Ukrainian army unit. ⚡ Delivering supplies quickly 🩺 Evacuating the wounded 🌲 Reaching terrain where regular vehicles get stuck 📽️Watch the video of the delivery and the soldiers’ thank-you message! #SupportUkraine #SlavaUkraini

Our good friend Ton is driving another minivan 🚐 full of aid goods to Ukraine where it will be delivered at Kees' farm. From there it will be distributed to an army unit at the front line.

🚛✨ Record week for De Leeuw Kyiv! Last week we delivered 30 trucks filled with anti-drone nets to Ukraine. Together with our partner organistions, we are sending as many tulip-bulb and fishing nets as possible to the frontline. youtu.be/ufGZfVhtPSo

🔥🚒 A shipment of 200 fire extinguishers donated from NL has safely arrived in Kherson. In a city so often hit by attacks on civilian targets, these tools are vital, and will be put to immediate, life-saving use. 🙏 Thank you to everyone who made this possible! #SupportUkraine #SlavaUkraini

We received wonderful thank-you videos from 2 Ukrainian hospitals in Odesa region! They received a whole set of rehabilitation chairs, generously donated from Belgium, and one reliable car, donated by Dutch visitors of Kees. 💙💛 A huge thank you to everyone involved! #SupportUkraine #SlavaUkraini

🚐 Many of the cars we deliver to Ukraine are used right at the frontline, to move equipment, troops, and wounded. Sadly, they often get damaged or destroyed. Here’s a video near Pokrovsk, showing the minivan we brought over just 2 months ago. We can only hope no lives were lost in this attack. 💙💛

Afgelopen nacht was er weer een enorme aanval van rusland op #Kyiv en andere plekken in Oekraïne. Shaheds, kruis- en ballistische raketten werden ingezet. Onze vriend Leo zag de schade bij hem in de buurt tijdens zijn ochtendwandeling. 😯👇
