Amid the Russian invasion, stories of Ukrainians’ bravery has flooded the internet. Videos and photos have emerged from border cities, where Russians first reached, showing residents confronting soldiers.
Another video showed a man removing a landmine with his bare hands. One of the videos that have stood out shows a man stopping a Russian tank just with his hands.
The West and many countries have slammed Russia for launching the attack on its tiny neighbour and announced sanctions, but President Vladimir Putin has so far ignored all the pressure.
In the weeks before launching the full-scale invasion, Putin made it clear that Ukraine should not be made a member of the NATO and demanded that eastern European countries must be demilitarised.
The West refused to accept Moscow’s demands, but have been using diplomatic channels to persuade Putin to end the war.
