"I know what it is like to be hungry. It is very important to feed others, even those you don't know," says a volunteer who bakes bread for the Ukrainian army. A citizen of the country, she decided to stay back in war-torn Ukraine along with 30 other women to render her services for the army.

Earlier, these women used to work as IT professionals, teachers, drivers. But the war has brought them together to fight for their country that is being bombarded with continuous Russian bombings and shelling.

The women work in a small house that used to be a shelter for domestic violence survivors. Now it hosts women and children displaced by the war.

Eight medical professionals from Chicago-based MedGlobal will soon make their way into Ukraine, aiming to provide life-saving help to those in need in the war-ravaged country. The professionals boarded a flight at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport on Wednesday, each bringing with them checked bags full of donated medical supplies, including pain medication, surgical kits and even baby formula.

After arriving in Warsaw, Poland, the workers will head into Ukraine, stopping in Lviv and making their way wherever the need is greatest.

According to Dr. John Kahler, cofounder of the organization, the medical professionals will be bringing more than $500,000 worth of donated supplies into Ukraine.

Those professionals, ranging from doctors to psychiatrists, are walking into the war zone to help Ukrainian civilians, saying that their passion to save people's lives is bigger than their fears of the conflict.

The professionals are heading into Ukraine amid an uptick in bombings of civilian targets. According to Ukrainian officials, at least 17 people were hurt this week after Russian bombs struck a children's hospital in Mariupol, injuring staffers and patients in the hospital's maternity ward.

Everyone involved with MedGlobal is a volunteer, stepping away from their current practices to donate their time abroad. Their stay could last days or even weeks, the group says.

The Polish airline that the group used to fly to Europe allowed MedGlobal to bring 10 checked bags per person, ensuring that they could bring over sufficient medical supplies to help those in need.

If the Russians actually use chemical weapons against the Ukrainian civilian population it would produce catastrophic lethality. Chemical munitions not effective against equipped US troops. Terrible impact on civilians. Predict we would enter the war.

A Russian Ground Forces Unit was ambushed on a road in the Woods by waiting Ukrainian Forces, the Russian Troops seem to have No Armor or Mechanized Support and with how they are Acting Under Fire, like they have almost No Training, I am assuming they are Conscripts. pic.twitter.com/OZQmduv1Mg

He is significantly underestimating the negative impact of chemical weapons on equipped troops.
