Ukrainians return to country to take up arms against Russia - BBC News

The UN says that more than one million people have fled the fighting in Ukraine, but there are also people heading in the opposite direction.

Driven by patriotism, bravery and the knowledge that the Ukraine is outgunned by the Russian forces, many Ukrainians are going back to fight with no military experience.

It’s so unfortunate that there’s so much destruction and and death just because of the tantrums of a tyrant. I hope and pray for the people of Ukraine everyday to emerge triumphant in these trying times. Slava Ukraini!

If there's no more Ukraine in this world after this war, I'm wondering if Nato would think that they had made a right call

During the first world war boys age 12 years-old sign up to join the war. Those were school boys fighting a war and now citizens of Ukraine flee while other stay to fight. Shows they won't quit. Some flee to keep the culture alive and some return to save their home. They are brave no matter which way they are going.

[tindasabungi]

They are great people's love of the land, go may God stand for you Ukraine's

[myworldoffficial]

Ukraine President should resign from his post.Because his power is not greater than Ukraine people's life.And no country should provoke both nations.
