"Guys, Ukrainian people, they're super strong people. They're so strong, they're so powerful, but they really need your support right now. They really need other countries' people's support. Just pray and support them. That's what they really need."

Days before the situation escalated, Zaya assured all her fans and followers that her "family is in a safe place," but was still worried about her native country. The star also posted a portrait of a woman with a large heart, with the Ukrainian flag on her chest.

In her post two days ago on social media, she expressed her shock at the war-like situation taking place in the 21st century.

"I'm scared now. It's so scary that it's hard to even breathe. I get calls from friends who are afraid, they hear bombs and do not know what to do. They dropping bombs starter at 4 am y'all at 4AM when people are sleeping, this is crazy..I want to ask y'all, let's pray for Ukraine please it's so important now."

Zaya expressed her love for Ukraine while living in Covingon, Louisiana, with her husband, Jovi Dufren, and their 18-month-old daughter, Mylah.

Putin's aggression towards Ukraine has been widely condemned by international countries, with economic sanctions and NATO troops gathering in the region. People have been pouring in with support in the form of prayers and fundraisers to support the citizens of Ukraine.
