‘We were winning and winning and winning and I would describe the Zaporizhzhian front as definitely less intense than what we had in Kherson, not because of the lack of trying but mostly because the Russians have concentrated most of their efforts in Donbas. ‘If there is no win for us, there is no life for us afterwards, we’ll lose at least a portion of our country.‘Most of the guys around me are like myself, we want to see it through to the end.’Valentyn, 39, is a veteran of the Donbas war who had been running a digital agency in the capital, where he lived with his wife and daughter, before hostilities began on February 24 last year.
