When the Romanians found Vasyl, a 26-year-old postman from Ivano-Frankivsk who had received a draft notice and decided to flee, his body temperature had dropped to 30°C, and his blood test results resembled those of a dead person.

He was evacuated by helicopter and is now in a Romanian hospital: he has come out of the coma, but lost both kidneys.

“Yesterday I spoke with my mother. Now she knows: I am free,” Vasyl says in a weak voice.
