Yesterday, we saw the video of Kostiantyn Vlasenko, a Ukrainian Defender from the 30th Brigade, being evacuated by drone
After being seriously wounded in February, Kostiantyn lost one leg. Several months later, when gangrene set in, he had to amputate his other leg himself. Throughout all of this, he continued to hold the position alone.
Attempts to evacuate him by land had failed, so different units of Ukraine's Defense Forces came together to rescue Kostiantyn.
