Ukrainian soldiers maintain optimism under constant Russian fire — video
Ukrainian soldiers showcased
remarkable composure during another attempted attack by Russian troops using RPGs.
A video, recently shared on social media, captures the scene inside a shelter as Ukrainian forces come under fire from the Russians.
The footage shows soldiers from the 24th Mechanized Brigade named after King Danylo maintaining their sense of humor despite the powerful explosions occurring right above their heads.
The soldiers are unfazed by the Russian attempts to break their positions.
"What was that?" one soldier asks.
"RPG... Very close," another replies.
"Oh, good."
"Yeah, somewhere near the trench."
"Well, an FAB-500 would be brighter," another soldier jokes, managing to stay positive even under such harsh service conditions.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
