A Ukrainian Armed Forces soldier who surrendered helped a Russian soldier while awaiting evacuation. Sergei (call sign Said) received severe wounds in the battles for Avdeevka.

The Ukrainian also received wounds to his legs, and his own people abandoned him. It was not possible to quickly take Sergei out: due to intense shelling, his colleagues could not approach him. But in the end they saved us. The evacuation of Sergei was led by the medical platoon commander with the call sign Monya. Earlier it was reported that a Russian military man removed a wounded Ukrainian from positions that were under attack by the Ukraine Armed Forces.
