A wounded soldier is stranded in an area no one can safely enter — under constant enemy surveillance, exposed to fire and unable to move. Sending rescuers in could cost even more lives. But a new generation of technology is making rescue possible in places where, until recently, there was almost no hope.
Help us provide the 1st Medical Battalion and two other Ukrainian brigades with four remotely operated ground vehicles designed to bring wounded soldiers back from places rescuers cannot reach.
For five years, Russia has been trying to conquer Ukraine. And as the war has continued, technology has rapidly changed the battlefield. In the first months, we supplied helmets and protective vests. Today, our partners urgently need modern unmanned systems known as NRKs — nazemnyi robototekhnichnyi kompleks, or ground robotic systems.
These remotely operated evacuation vehicles can go where people cannot. They can bring a wounded soldier out of an area where rescuers cannot operate because going in would almost certainly cost them their lives.
One evacuation NRK costs 550,000 CZK.
How ground evacuation vehicles save lives? The rescue often begins in the air. Aerial reconnaissance locates the wounded soldier, maps the surrounding area, identifies threats and finds the safest possible route out. Rescue teams no longer have to enter deadly, unfamiliar terrain without knowing what awaits them.
Then the ground robot takes over.
Operated remotely from cover, it can enter areas where sending another person would mean an unacceptable risk. It can bring first aid — a tourniquet or other medical supplies — directly to the wounded soldier. Most importantly, it can get them out.
If the wounded soldier is conscious, an extendable platform allows them to get onto the vehicle themselves. The operator remains under cover, away from the immediate danger.
One ground robot can therefore save more than one life: the wounded soldier’s, as well as those of the fellow soldiers or medics who would otherwise have to go in after them.
Every robotic evacuation mission changes the equation. It gives a wounded soldier a chance to survive long enough to reach medical care. It means others do not have to risk their lives attempting an almost impossible rescue. And it allows technology to take the place of human courage when courage alone could lead to further casualties.
This is direct, tangible aid. These machines save lives.
Every evacuation vehicle can mean fewer Ukrainian defenders lost. One fewer name among the tens of thousands already killed. And, most importantly, one real person brought out of danger, into the hands of medics — and given the chance to return home to their family.

POST BELLUM
Ukraine is bleeding. We don't have to just passively watch the injustice and aggression our friends are facing because they decided to share our values of freedom and democracy. For more than four years now, we've been buying protective and medical supplies and doing everything we can to get them to Ukraine as quickly as possible and to the places where they're most needed. Thousands of vests and helmets from us are being used by defenders on the front lines, and many tons of medical supplies are saving lives. We also supply fire trucks, ambulances, generators, drones, and optical equipment. The war is still going on. Ukrainian heroes are fighting and still need supplies to defend their country. Please, let us persevere as well. Our own experience with war and totalitarianism in the 20th century compels us to help Ukraine.
In 2019, the non-profit organization Post Bellum established a branch in Lviv with the aim of recording the memories of eyewitnesses for the Memory of Nations archive. Our colleagues in Ukraine have recorded dozens of stories, mainly from the period of Stalinist repression, dissidents, and political prisoners. After the outbreak of the conflict, they asked us for help. We couldn't refuse. Thanks to your support, we have already delivered thousands of bulletproof vests and helmets, tons of medical supplies and observation optics, and, last but not least, fully equipped ambulances and fire trucks to the defenders of Ukraine. Aid to Ukraine has a tangible impact—our collection has demonstrably saved dozens of lives. It also has symbolic significance—the victims of aggression know that they are not alone. All of the resources sent are non-lethal in nature.
All materials needed have been consulted with experts from the Army of the Czech Republic. The recipients of our aid are predominantly frontline fighters, members of special forces units. The assistance is implemented through the Embassy of Ukraine in the Czech Republic. Representatives of the Czech Embassy in Kyiv then oversee the correct use and distribution of the material to those in need.
In cooperation with the Donio portal and, above all, six thousand generous donors, we managed to collect funds for equipment of two field hospitals that play a vital role in saving the lives of wounded soldiers.
Together with the general public, we remind ourselves that the war in Ukraine is still on and that we must not be indifferent. On February 21, 2026, together with the organizations People in Need, Million Moments for democracy and the European Congress of Ukrainians we again organized a rally for the 4th anniversary of the war. The President of the Czech Republic, Petr Pavel, also spoke at the Old Town Square.
During August we have been organizing a commemorative event called "Go Home, Ivan" in the Boris Nemtsov Park with the same organizations. We recall the time when Soviet aggression also affected us. In 2025 the event "Go Home, Ivan" took place on August 21, traditionally in front of the Russian Embassy. The band Rybičky 48 played at the event.

Na záchranu chlapů, kteří bojují jak za vlastní, tak za naši svobodu. Kéž se dožijí dne, kdy jim alespoň Evropa upřímně poděkuje za to, že to nevzdali.
