An audio tape of an exchange between the Ukrainian soldiers on an island in the Black Sea and an officer of the Russian Navy has emerged. All of the soldiers - who were defending Snake Island - are reported to have been killed, according to President Volodymyr Zelensky. This audio has been confirmed and verified as authentic by the Ukrainian Interior Ministry.

Holy moly, that takes some balls to say it in the face of death

I think that soldier expressed very succinctly what the whole free world is thinking.

This aged beautifully.

For those who don't know, the person who told the warship to go F themselves is alive and in Ukraine. He was given a medal for bravery I believe.

As for the warship, it sunk on April 14th. So yes, it did go F itself. To add more hilarity, Ukraine issued a postage stamp of the incident a couple days before it sank!

They showed their defiance until death, such brave soldiers.

Rather die standing than live on your knees. This brought tears to my eyes. You will not be forgotten brave Ukrainian soldier

You might be a badass but you'll never be a "Go fuck yourself Russia", while staring down a Russian warship barrel, badass. Respect.

I'm not ukranian but this moment has definitely had an impact on me and brought tears to my eyes

God bless that Ukrainian patriot. I hope he's identified so his countrymen can honor him in their histories.

[jonathanrisher]

I admire the bravery of Ukraine soldiers....even when the odds are against them, they rather die than surrender. This is not cowardly, this is it's a shame good soldiers had to die

[patrykiwanicki]

So, the Ukrainian soldiers starring in that famous recording are actually alive and back in Ukraine, while the Moskva ship has just been sunk and is now at the bottom of the Black Sea. "How it started" vs "how it's going".
