弗拉森科蜷缩在一所被炸毁学校的锅炉下的坑里，这时他得出了一个可怕的结论：要活下去，他必须截掉自己仅剩的那只脚。
Vlasenko was huddled in a hole under the boiler of a bombed-out school when he came to a terrifying conclusion: To survive, he needed to amputate his only remaining foot.
这名乌克兰步兵在2月的一次俄罗斯无人机袭击中已经失去了左脚。在同一次袭击中，他的右腿骨折并弯曲，使他连爬行都困难。大约三个月后，他鼓起勇气，抓起刀子，割下了自己的脚，并用止血带止住了流血。他活了下来。
The Ukrainian infantryman had already lost his left foot in a Russian drone strike in February. His right leg was broken and bent in the same attack, hindering his ability even to crawl. About three months later, after working up the courage, he grabbed his knife, sliced off his foot and applied a tourniquet to staunch the bleeding. He survived.
