A drone strike destroyed the shelter & we need your help URGENTLY

During the ongoing war, one of ROLDA’s shelters was struck by an enemy drone

The explosion tore through buildings and enclosures.

13 dogs were killed & others were severely injured.

Some animals ran in panic as the blast wave ripped open their cages, scattering them across the surrounding streets.

Staff rushed through smoke and debris trying to save as many animals as they could.

One employee, Yana, was also badly wounded by the blast and taken to hospital for emergency surgery.

Inside the shelter, food supplies burned, medicine was destroyed and our dog houses and enclosures were reduced to rubble.

Yet even after the attack, the rescuers did not leave. Dedicated, they searched for the animals who had fled.

They treated the injured and they began rebuilding.

Today, these animals are still receiving care thanks to compassionate supporters around the world - including people here in Australia.
