Transportation secretary said stoppage is due to ‘communication issue’ and homeland security says there’s no indication of ‘nefarious attack’

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a nationwide ground stop for all flights that are due to take off in the US on Friday, delaying or canceling more than 11,000 US flights, according to aviation tracker FlightAware.

In a post on X, Sean Duffy, the US transportation secretary, said the stoppage is due to “a communication issue impacting all Air Route Traffic Control Centers” and that the FAA’s technicians are looking into the matter.

Volunteer wanted: army fundraiser coordinator

Euromaidan Press readers have raised over $1 million for Ukraine's defenders. We are looking for a volunteer to help raise more.

Since 2022, Euromaidan Press has run 250 fundraisers for Ukrainian frontline units: drones, jammers, tactical tablets, power stations, and thermal sights. Each goes to a unit we know through people we trust, and every purchase and handover is documented for donors. Fundraiser #251, for air defense forces in Sumy Oblast, is open now.

We want to grow the team behind it, with someone who will learn the work and stay.

What you'll do:

  • Turn a unit's request into a clear fundraiser: what is needed, for whom, and why it matters
  • Prepare announcements for our site and social media, with photos and short videos from the units
  • Write the follow-up reports that show donors what their money bought
  • Use AI tools to draft, translate, and design, and check everything they produce
  • Keep in touch with donors and with sponsors who match donations
  • Record short videos, if you can: for fundraisers, a person talking to the camera works better than a static post

You'll fit if you:

  • Are reliable over months, not weeks: a few steady hours every week matter more to us than a burst of enthusiasm
  • Know social media and are willing to learn AI tools; we'll show you how we use them
  • Write clearly in English; Ukrainian is a plus
  • Have a track record we can check, because the work involves contact with donors and military units
  • A bonus: you are comfortable on camera, or willing to try

Anyone can apply. Retirees, veterans, and members of the Ukrainian diaspora are especially welcome: some of the most dedicated people we have worked with came from there.

What we offer:

This is a volunteer role. You get training, a team that has run these fundraisers since 2022, and the reports from units showing what your work paid for.

How to apply:

Email euromaidanpress (a) gmail.com with the subject line "Fundraising volunteer." No CV needed. In a few lines, answer four questions:

  1. Who are you, and where are you based?
  2. What have you done online or as a volunteer? Add links if you can: posts, pages, a fundraiser you ran, a video you made.
  3. How many hours a week can you give, and for how long?
  4. Who can vouch for you? One name with contact details.

You will not handle any money. The role is preparing and posting the announcements and reports.

We will ask the people we shortlist to prepare one real fundraiser announcement as a trial.
