The soldier and his small squad had been defending a small island called Snake Island in the Black Sea during the early days of the Russian invasion in late February.
When a Russian warship challenged them to surrender, the soldier, in an audio clip of the incident that surfaced on social media, was heard bluntly replying, "Russian warship, go f*** yourself."
It was reported then that the small squad of Ukrainian soldiers defending Snake Island was killed. Later, Russian media reported that they were taken into captivity.
