Prince Harry Recreates One of Princess Diana’s Most Famous Photographs During Surprise Trip to Ukraine

Prince Harry said the cleanup could take decades as HALO Trust teams clear mines and ordnance that still threaten civilians.

  • On Friday, April 24, 2026, Prince Harry walked through an active minefield in Myrotske, Ukraine, joining The HALO Trust to clear ordnance-contaminated terrain. The Duke of Sussex echoed his late mother Princess Diana's historic 1997 walk in Angola.
  • Following the 2022 invasion, Russian forces occupied Myrotske, leaving thousands of landmines and unexploded munitions scattered across the forest. An estimated 174,000 square kilometers of Ukrainian land—twice the size of Austria—remain potentially contaminated.
  • The HALO Trust employs 1,300 people in Ukraine to clear remnants of war using advanced technology. The Duke operated an AI-powered drone and a Spot robot from Boston Dynamics, witnessing how these tools improve safety in hazardous terrain.
  • During the Kyiv Security Forum, Prince Harry urged Russian President Vladimir Putin to 'stop the war,' citing documented evidence of systematic war crimes in occupied territories. He appealed for a different course to prevent further suffering.
  • Regarding the Prince's plea, Donald Trump stated the royal 'does not speak for the UK.' Meanwhile, Harry noted the necessary cleanup effort will likely continue for the next two, three, or even four decades.
