‘Star Wars’ actor Mark Hamill sent 500 drones to Ukraine

During an interview with Bloomberg Radio’s Sound On program, the actor revealed he helped send 500 drones to Ukraine

Newsroom October 26 04:00

He may have hung up his lightsaber as Luke Skywalker in 2019, but “Star Wars” actor Mark Hamill is still fighting.

This time, it’s for Ukraine.

During an interview with Bloomberg Radio’s Sound On program, the actor revealed he helped send 500 drones to Ukraine.

“Very simply, Ukraine needs drones,” Hamill told Bloomberg. “They define war outcomes, they protect their land, their people, they monitor the border, they’re eyes in the sky.”
