貝克漢將IG帳號交給烏克蘭戰地醫師使用,向全球粉絲提供第一手前線消息 David Beckham hands control of his Instagram account to a Ukrainian doctor

World-famous retired soccer superstar David Beckham has handed over his social media account to a doctor, Iryna, in Ukraine. Iryna, head of the regional perinatal center in Kharkiv, was a child anesthesiologist before the war. She has been working non-stop in Kharkiv since Russia invaded the country over a month ago. Kharkiv is the second-largest city in Ukraine. Russia has shelled the country since February 24, and Kharkiv has been one of the main cities to be targeted by the Russian army.

Iryna and her colleagues have been helping pregnant women give birth and saving newborn babies and mothers in appalling conditions during the war. She showed Beckham’s 71.5 million Instagram followers how devastating the situation is with photos and clips. However, she insisted on conveying the message that even though doctors and nurses are risking their lives staying there, they will not give up.

Beckham, serving as a Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF since 2005, appealed to the public for donations to help the charity assist Ukrainian citizens and refugees.

友善讓你懂 │ 解說:

全球知名的退役前足球巨星貝克漢,日前將自己的社群帳號管理權,移交給一位烏克蘭醫師Iryna。擔任哈爾科夫地區婦幼醫院負責人的Iryna,在烏俄戰爭前是一名小兒麻醉師。從一個月前俄羅斯入侵烏克蘭開始,她便開始片刻無休地在哈爾科夫進行救援工作。哈爾科夫是烏克蘭的第二大城。從2月24日開始,俄羅斯便持續轟炸這個國家,而哈爾科夫則一直是俄羅斯軍隊鎖定攻擊的主要城市之一。

Iryna跟她的醫療同仁們,持續幫助臨盆的孕婦生產、也救治新生兒還有新手媽媽們,讓他們能在這段情況惡劣的戰事期間存活下來。她透過使用貝克漢的帳戶發布照片及影片,讓他的7千一百五十多萬名追蹤者,看到哈爾科夫的現況有多危急且慘不忍睹。然而,她堅持透過這樣的舉動傳遞一個訊息,即使醫師護士們是冒著自己的生命安全風險、守在哈爾科夫幫助這裡的人們,他們也絕不會放棄希望。

貝克漢從2005年開始便擔任聯合國兒童基金會(United Nations Children’s Fund,UNICEF)的親善大使,如今他也呼籲大眾慷慨解囊,捐款幫助UNICEF對烏克蘭的民眾與流亡的難民們提供救援。
