Ukrainian resistance: man tries to push back Russian tank

A video posted to social media shows a Ukrainian citizen attempting to stop a Russian tank with his body weight.

The man first climbs on to the tank before hopping down and attempting to push it back with his arms. When that fails, he kneels in front of the tank in a desperate bid to stop its advance. The moment, captured in Bakhmach in northern Ukraine, is one of a string of defiant acts caught on video showing unarmed Ukrainians confronting Russian soldiers

I'm Chinese and his courage got me speechless, my highest respect to this Ukrainian man! The new tank man of the 21st century!

As a young man, I toured the world as a Marine with a rifle. Now that I'm older, I see this man defending his neighborhood with nothing other than his life. That's true courage.

respect for that mad ukraine guy for stopping the tank and the tank driver for not run him over

[anthonykim]

This reminds me the incident of 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre. What a bravery. Mad respect

People who go to war, don't want war. People who want war, don't go to war.

My heart breaks for these people to see tanks roll down their streets. So terrifying. I cannot imagine how scary that is. Much respect to this brave soul for standing up & resisting, and to all the Ukrainians fighting for their freedom and autonomy. You’re amazing! Love from Boston Massachusetts (US)

Respect from UK. So sorry for what you guys are going through. It's pure chance where we are born and can only imagine what it would be like to have to face this situation. I wish we were doing more 💔🇺🇦

We tend to throw the word 'patriot' around in the US. So much so, it's nearly lost its meaning for me. Then comes this video...

Ten człowiek, który w akcie desperacyjnej niemocy sam jeden chciał zatrzymać gołymi rękami czołg, a potem przed nim ukląkł to dla mnie i wielu ludzi na świecie niesamowity akt bohaterstwa! 👍 Chwała 🇺🇦 Ukrainie!

The civilians are so brave. I've heard some of the tanks have run out of gas. The civilians could fertilze the tanks so they go places they can't imagine. The civilians are doing everything they can to slow the Russian tanks down. Bravo!

[OkumanTanja]

He is a hero who stopped
the tank with his body without any weapons.👊🥺

It only shows that both Russian and Ukrainian people dont like this war either. Soldiers are just doing their job. Regardless of the ethnicity, no one wants war. Videos like this is really heart breaking.

When injustice becomes law, Resistance become your duty. 💙✊💛

"They'll send us a message, that they can take whatever they want. But we will send our message: THIS IS OUR LAND!"
Chwała 🇺🇦 Ukrainie!

[mikhail]

Russians don't want war! We are sorry for our "leader"

[jessicaqu]

Sadly, I don't think the Russian soldiers want to be doing this. They're mostly kids following orders.

[spottybubbles]

This whole thing is unjust and makes me sick 😞 mutch love and respect to the citizens and soldiers of both Russia and Ukraine who don't want this
