Britain's Prince Harry visited Ukraine on Friday, arriving in Kyiv with a team from his Invictus Games Foundation to detail his charity's plans to help rehabilitate wounded soldiers, the Guardian newspaper reported.
It is the second visit Harry, the younger son of Britain's King Charles, has made to Ukraine this year, after he visited a centre for wounded military personnel in Lviv in April.
Harry served for 10 years in the British Army before setting up the Invictus Games Foundation, a charity which runs an international sporting event for military personnel wounded in action.
"We cannot stop the war but what we can do is do everything we can to help the recovery process," Harry told the Guardian on an overnight train to Kyiv.
He was invited to the capital by the Ukrainian government, he said, and received permission from the British government and his wife before travelling.
The trip comes at the end of Harry's four-day visit to Britain from his home in California, where he lives with his wife Meghan and their two children.
Since he stepped down as a senior royal in 2020, Harry's relationship with his father has been strained after he publicly criticised the royal family. In a sign of a thaw in relations, the pair held their first meeting in 20 months on Wednesday.
