Last minute The world stood up after Putins decision in

In the past week, Ukraine has retaken a large area west of the city of Kherson. The fighting has left devastation in its wake, but also material that the Ukrainian army can now use for the next battle.

Jona Källgren and photographer Daniel Zdolsek have met Andreiy, who returned to the place where he almost died, to collect spare parts for tanks.

– I thought the others were dead, but then I saw the wagon manager sitting at the bottom. The skin on his back was burnt. I started to pull him out of the tank but then the skin peeled off. He had burns all over and burned material stuck to his ear. I pulled him 50 meters away and then I crawled away further. I had no strength left and every breath I took was just smoke, he says.

– Every time I pass by here, I start shaking. It was incredibly scary, he continues.
