‘We got shelled by a Ukrainian tank. A flash of light, no one understood anything! I tried to reach the radio in front of me, but I couldn’t move my hands,’ remembers Vitaly Beskishkay. The man went to the front as a driver, then became a regular soldier. In one of the battles, he was seriously wounded and lost both his legs. Vitaly received a prosthesis in a Kursk clinic, which operates free of charge and raises funds so that everyone is able to afford the expensive procedure. Now the former soldier is learning to walk again. Those who have gone through the rehabilitation process warn that it will take a long time to learn to walk again, but the man is brave, willing to live and, as he says, ‘has big plans’. What are they? Find out in our clip.
