Ukraine has opened an online donation platform where anyone from the worldwide web can donate to the country. President Volodymyr Zelensky tweeted on Thursday afternoon that he has launched "United 24."

"Only together we have the potential to stop the war that Russia has started and to rebuild what Russia has destroyed," the Ukrainian leader said. "Together we can help freedom defeat tyranny.

"In one click, you can donate funds to protect our defenders, save our civilians and rebuild Ukraine."

All funds donated will be transferred to Ukraine's National Bank and distributed to all relevant ministries, according to the platform's website.

The site also lists the relevant actions that the funds will support, including defense and medical aid to Ukrainian civilians and soldiers.

The website will also provide reports of how much was donated to the platform, the Zelensky said. Its Twitter account wrote that it is "the main venue for making one-click donations from any country in support of Ukraine."
