U2 are among those who have declared they “stand with Ukraine” as the country marks its 31st anniversary on Ukraine's Independence Day.
The Dublin rockers have been outspoken in their support of Ukraine in the last six months amid the war with Russia – with Bono and The Edge travelling to the country back in May, and performing a special concert in a metro station in Kyiv, after being invited to the country personally by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
They shared a post on Instagram of Bono's reading of 'My Friendly Epistle' by Taras Shevchenko, the renowned Ukrainian poet.
