"We've been on the front line since the start of the war," says Vadym, a Ukrainian infantry soldier whose unit are holding a position in the conflict's Kupyansk direction. "We need to mobilise so we can at least take a break" the 33-year-old explains, as the war nears its two-year mark, "we're very tired". Stationed alongside Vadym is Oleksandr, who says the fighting has been intense and the number of soldiers injured "more than we would like." IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
