Description
Hundreds of mourners gather in the central Ukrainian city of Vinnytsia for the funeral of serviceman Nazary "Grinka" Gryntsevych, who was killed in combat on May 6 at the age of 21. Gryntsevych was one of the youngest soldiers to hold the southern city of Mariupol during a three-month siege in 2022, before it was seized and he was captured by Russian troops. Largely thanks to a cult-video, he became a symbol of defiance. "This is a guy who gave his youth for us" says Vitaliy, a 17-year-old mourner. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
