A detailed video account, published by Ukrainian special forces, described how the soldier refused to lay down his food, while one of his compatriots tried to kill himself by running into a pillar.

They later asked to watch Korean romance films, the Ukrainians said.

“He was lying there, with his head and an arm wounded. He had a grenade, a knife and a sausage on him,” one of the soldiers of Ukraine’s 95th Air Assault Brigade said in an interview published on Tuesday.

“I asked him to drop everything, but he refused to drop the sausage because it was food, so we let him keep it.”
