“Being a military man in our time is a pretty serious step. You understand that you basically have a one-way ticket. How can you get out of the army in our time? The first is on crutches, the second is death, and the third (option) does not exist ”, he stated.
Moreover, during the conversation, as before, he spoke Russian.
The militant joined the army at the age of 18. He is now 22 years old.
Leonenko lost his leg during the fighting in Mariupol in the spring of 2022: it was amputated above the knee. When the militant was attacked with mortars, by his own admission, “he mentally asked for forgiveness from his mother and waited for death.”
