Nathan Long, a 30-year-old roofer from south London, joined the Ukrainian Foreign Legion despite never having fired a gun before, motivated by a desire to stop Vladimir Putin’s advances.

Long underwent rigorous training, faced life-threatening conditions, and has since become a battle-hardened soldier, reflecting on the sacrifices and losses experienced on the front lines.
