阿尔乔姆·利特温讲述了他被困在哈尔科夫“杀伤区”八天后,所经历的一场复杂而危险的救援行动。阿尔乔姆·利特温穿过一片田野时,爆炸声响起。前方是一片树林。再往前不远就是俄罗斯边境。这名25岁的乌克兰士兵花了五天时间跋涉到哈尔科夫地区东北部一个危险的前沿阵地。一路上,他和六名战友躲避无人机,并在一个散兵坑里击毙了两名俄罗斯人。

Artem Lytvyn tells of complex and risky rescue operation after he spent eight days stricken in Kharkiv’s ‘kill zone’ Artem Lytvyn was crossing a field when the bang happened. Up ahead was a tree line. Not far beyond that the Russian border. The 25-year-old Ukrainian soldier had spent five days trekking to a dangerous forward position in the north-eastern Kharkiv region. Along the way he and six comrades dodged drones, and killed two Russians in a foxhole.

在距离目的地还有几百米的地方,他踩到了一枚地雷。“我什么也没听到。是磁性的。我的步枪引爆了它,”利特温说。他给被炸碎的右腿绑了两条止血带,并脱下了作战靴。战友们把他和另一名受伤的排里成员西亚瓦拖进了灌木丛。同样的爆炸炸掉了西亚瓦的腿。两天后他死了。

A few hundred metres short of his destination, he trod on a mine. “I didn’t hear anything. It was a magnet type. My rifle set it off,” Lytvyn said. He applied two tourniquets to his shattered right leg and pulled off his combat boot. Fellow soldiers dragged him and another wounded platoon member, Siava, into bushes. The same blast ripped off Siava’s leg. He died two days later.
