BORODYANKA, Ukraine (AP) — Hollywood actor Liev Schreiber and former Ukraine soccer star Andriy Shevchenko have appealed for international donations to Ukraine to continue. They spoke Monday on a visit to a residential area outside Kyiv that suffered extensive damage from Russian bombardment. Schreiber, who starred in “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” and “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse,” is partly of Ukrainian ancestry and is involved in several charity initiatives for the country. He also met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.  A number of Hollywood stars have visited Ukraine during the war, including Angelina Jolie, Sean Penn and Ben Stiller.
