| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] Ukrainian and Russian soldiers performed the song “Katyusha” together in the zone of a special military operation. This was reported by military expert Vladislav Shurygin. He published the video on his Telegram channel. Russian fighters were in the forest not far from the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). They called out to the Ukrainian military, after which they began to sing in chorus: “The apple and pear trees were blooming. Fogs floated over the river.” The Ukrainian military took up the song. “Katyusha came ashore. To a high bank, to a steep bank,” continued the Ukrainian Armed Forces fighters. The expert did not specify in which direction in the Northwestern Military District zone this happened. As Regnum reported, on December 25, the Russian military organized the broadcast of front-line songs to raise the morale of the soldiers and demoralize the enemy. War correspondent Alexander Sladkov reported this in a report from the outskirts of liberated Marinka . According to him, the songs “Zemlyanka”, “Blue Handkerchief”, and the Russian Anthem were played. Ukrainian prisoners confirmed that the sound easily reaches the Ukrainian trenches. On December 25, the Russian military rescued a Ukrainian female soldier who was abandoned by her fellow soldiers on the battlefield near the village of Krynki in the Kherson region. After Russian paratroopers and marines defeated the Ukrainian Armed Forces in a shooting battle, many dead and wounded remained on the battlefield. A wounded female soldier, noticing a Russian drone in the air, made a request for help with her hand. The Russian military evacuated the wounded woman and provided her with medical assistance. Russian President Vladimir Putin said that the Russian military does not leave wounded on the battlefield, as the enemy does. He emphasized that the Russian side cannot behave like these temporary workers in Ukraine, who leave the wounded to the mercy of fate, abandon them and do not consider them to be their people. Actor Mikhail Mamaev , who returned from the special operation zone, was not allowed to sing “Katyusha” in Andrei Malakhov ’s program , despite the fact that he invited all participants in the TV show to perform a patriotic song. The program management considered the song “pretentious.” |
