'This is not a film': Bullet-riddled Ukrainian ambulance displayed by Russian embassy in Lisbon

An unusual sight on the streets of Lisbon. A bullet-riddled ambulance completely destroyed. The story of this vehicle dates back to 2022 during a rescue operation in Kharkiv, Ukraine. What was once an emergency medical vehicle is now an exhibit that, according to the Portuguese Ukrainian Association, Oranta, illustrates the horrors of the conflict, which includes Russian attacks on civilians with physical and indisputable evidence of war crimes. The vehicle has travelled through several European countries and recently arrived in Portugal. In the capital, the vehicle was parked next to the Russian Federation's embassy. For Roman Grimalyuk, this is yet another act of resistance, especially after the embassy's attaché recently alleged that Portugal was one of the most hostile countries in Europe. The ambulance and the accompanying exhibition are part of the quote Ukraine is calling campaign, which has already travelled through 11 European countries. The campaign aims to raise more than 100 medical vehicles for Ukraine. Oranta, one of the partner organizations, has already managed to send 31 medical and rescue vehicles to the country.
