Ten million dollars. It is the (record) sum donated by Leonardo DiCaprio to the armed forces of Kiev committed to fighting against Russian troops after the invasion of Ukraine.
Aid, that of the Hollywood star, both to support the war and humanitarian efforts in the country at war.
The news was released by Ukrinform, the Ukrainian news agency, which in turn cites Gsa News, according to which it is the largest sum so far donated to the country under attack. The actor of "Titanic" - it is emphasized - has Ukrainian roots.
His maternal grandmother, Elena Smirnova, who died in 2008, was in fact originally from Odessa, a city in western Ukraine overlooking the Black Sea, for many one of the next targets of the advance of the Moscow army.
