  2. Many Finnish citizens are also fighting for Ukraine there, and there are also volunteer groups that provide hardware (drones etc.) + additional training to Ukrainian forces. Sometimes in dangerous areas. That is not selfish, or “safari”, like some state here. Far from it. Selfless heroes.

    May he rest in peace.

    1. ​@ebr50 It doesn’t seem that way to us in Russia. Нам, в России, так не кажется.

  3. My condolences. This war is so sad and every part of my wishes this war never would have started! It is so sad for everyone involved.

    1. I don’t feel sorry for such people. And it’s not that they are my enemies. They’re just doing something stupid. Мне не жаль таких людей. И дело не в том, что они мои враги. Они просто делают какую-то глупость.

  4. To be honest it says a lot about a military person that required a building to be dropped on him to take him out

  5. Heartbreaking!
    May his loved ones find a way to cope during this difficult time.

    This war has to stop. Enough lives lost.
    A peaceful resolution is desperately needed now.
