Prince Harry on surprise visit to Ukraine to meet injured war veterans | BBC News. Prince Harry has received an enthusiastic welcome in a surprise visit to Ukraine to support injured war veterans, meeting Ukrainian competitors taking part in his Invictus Games. There were emotional scenes as the Duke of Sussex was applauded by injured service men and women in Lviv, where he told his audience: "You're going to win the war." Prince Harry spent two days at events for veterans, with a press blackout for security reasons until he had left Ukraine, as the country continues to face missile attacks from Russia. Ukraine has more than 150,000 injured war veterans and the prince visited projects supporting their treatment and rehabilitation.
