I have some developers that work for me out of the Ukraine. I need a good way to check if their internet is still up for them so I can hope my slack messages are getting to them.

For reference (this person lives in Kiev not near the border):
Hi! Yes, at the moment we're ok and continue the work as usual. I saw news on cnn saying a journalist heard some bombs in Kiev, but I live in Kiev and everything is quite here. Perhaps that can be a mass media manipulation, as Russia haven't entered Ukraine, they keep their military near the borders and in Donetsk, Lughansk.

Another response from someone who lives near the border:
Hi!
I'm OK, but I woke up from the explosions.

I am chatting live with a friend from Odessa. This is 100% not a media manipulation, they effectively are under a significant scale attack and i guess it's just that Ukraine is a big place, so some places will stay peaceful for now.
