Mila Kunis says she's a 'proud Ukrainian' and launches refugee fundraiser with husband Ashton Kutcher

• Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis launched a fundraiser to aid Ukrainian refugees.
• Kunis, now a US citizen, was born in Chernivtsi, Ukraine.

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher have launched a fundraiser to aid Ukrainian refugees and pledged to match all donations up to $3 million.

Kunis, who was born in Chernivtsi, Ukraine, condemned Russia's invasion of Ukraine and said in a fundraising video posted to Kutcher's Instagram account that there was "no place in this world for this kind of unjust attack on humanity."

"I have always considered myself an American, a proud American. I love everything this country has done for myself and my family. But today, I have never been more proud to be a Ukrainian," Kunis added.

Kutcher, Kunis's husband since 2015, also appeared in the video and added: "While we witness the bravery of the people in the country she was born in, we're also witness to the needs of those who have chosen safety."

Kutcher later said that the main challenge for organizations on the ground in Ukraine was "logistics" such as securing housing and critical supplies for people who have been displaced by the violence.

"We're raising funds to support a relief effort that will have immediate impact and supply much-needed refugee and humanitarian aid to the area," Kutcher said.

The pair urged people to donate to their GoFundMe page, which has been set up in collaboration with Airbnb as well as the freight company Flexport. The two pledged to match all donations up to $3 million.

Kunis added: "The people of Ukraine are strong and brave but being strong and brave doesn't mean you're not worthy of support."

By Friday, the pair's GoFundMe page has already passed $3 million in donations. Venture Capitalist Ron Conway made a $2.5 million donation to the fundraiser and shared a link to the GoFundMe page on Twitter, voicing his support for their efforts.

Russian forces attacked Ukraine last week and launched a large-scale, unprovoked invasion. The Russian military entered Ukraine from several directions, with troops headed toward the country's capital, Kyiv, and attacked with airstrikes and shelling.

On Friday morning, Ukrainian officials said Russia had seized Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant — the largest in the country and in Europe.
