Many Ukrainian brigades have at least one , often several, amputee soldiers still on active duty.
They chose to return to combat driven by the sense of responsibility amid grim outlook for their country.
On the front line, Russia is expending huge amounts of weaponry and human life to make small but steady territorial gains.
One soldier lost his right leg after a sniper shot at him in February 2015 when Russia first started its armed aggression in eastern Ukraine .
Another lost his left leg after he stepped on a mine in November 2022 during a counteroffensive in the Donetsk region.
“I am surprised that (my body) preserved so well,” he said.
