Ukraine makes appeal for foreign volunteers to help defend a 'free world'

Commander of Georgian legion in Ukraine Mamuka Mamulashvili says he is witnessing the 'slaughter of a civil population in the streets' on 'Fox News Live.'

The former Miss Grand Ukraine made Instagram posts in support of the Ukrainian military and has warned that anyone who crosses the border with the intention of invading will be killed.

Anastasia Lenna, a beauty queen who represented Ukraine in 2015 in the Miss Grand International beauty contest, made the claims on her Instagram, which showed her wielding an airsoft gun, according to the New York Post.
