Perhaps this is what nerves of steel look like. The Ukrainian MRAP “MaxxPro” armored vehicle, under mortar fire and heavy fire from enemy drones, is returning to our positions from a combat mission in Chasov Yar, Donetsk region. The intersection seems to have been well targeted by the enemy, but even this does not become a hindrance for the crew of the vehicle. Just titans!

.🇺🇦 Yesterday, a video appeared on the Internet, where the Ukrainian MaxxPro, despite heavy fire from the Russians, rushes through the roads of the city of Chasiv Yar at full speed, performing a combat mission.
This was a teaser, now we are sharing its full version.
This is a video of fighters of the strike group "Black Swan". At the wheel of our brother "Mikhalych" with a navigator with the call sign "Kesha" they are going to the position for a wounded soldier and to deliver supplies to the combat units of our unit, which are heroically holding the most difficult areas of the front. Further words are superfluous, see, draw your own conclusions.
Mikhalich, Kesha, and everyone who is defending Chasiv Yar now - you are incredible! We did the impossible again, but for the first time we filmed it. Heroes live among us. We are proud, thank you and keep working!
All defenders of the country, we are writing history. Today, now and every day. Glory to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Glory to the defense soldiers, Glory to the Heroes of Ukraine!!

Mariana Checheliuk, a 24-year-old investigator with the National Police of Ukraine (NPU) from the city of Mariupol, was among the prisoners of war (POWs) that Ukraine liberated as part of the 52nd POW swap. Mariana had been in captivity for more than two years.
Yuliia Pryimak, Head of the Central Regional Centre of the Coordination Headquarters for the Treatment of Prisoners of War, has spread the news.
After the start of the full-scale invasion, the young lady and her younger sister were hiding from Russian bombardment in the walls of Azovstal steelworks. After the evacuation of civilians from the steelworks, the sisters were separated in a Russian filtration camp.
"Mariana lost a lot of weight, her immune system weakened, her hair began to fall out, and her periods disappeared," her mother described Mariana's condition.
The daughter received no letters from her mother, who constantly sent them. The young lady knew absolutely nothing about her family, what happened to them or where they were.
Later, the Coordination Headquarters for the Treatment of Prisoners of War published the video showing the soldiers, brought back from Russian captivity, on their native land. The video shows Mariana crying and calling her mom for the first time.
A total of 70 men and five women have been brought back to Ukraine as part of the swap. At least a third of the POWs have been injured, seriously ill or disabled.
