In February 2022, [Russia invaded Ukraine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine). The countries have been at war ever since. Ukrainian citizens can at any moment be caught in crossfire or be deliberately targeted by the Russian army. Ukraine introduced the [Ukraine Alarm](https://www.ukrainealarm.com/) service to help citizens be notified when fighting is happening nearby.
Today were doing a special release of Home Assistant to make the new Ukraine Alarm integration available to everyone. It was contributed by [Paul Annekov](https://github.com/PaulAnnekov). This integration will track the alerts for the users region and represent it as safety binary sensors. These sensors can be used in automations so it's possible to notify the people in your home that there is danger.
