Although he knew that his end would be death, the Ukrainian soldier, Timothy Chadura, did not beg the Russian soldiers when they besieged him while he was unarmed.

The Ukrainian soldier, Shadura, impressed everyone with his brave stance in front of the Russians. He is 40 years old, from the 30th Separate Brigade, and he has been missing since the third of last February during fighting in the city of Bakhmut.

And the “Shababat” program (8/3/2023) followed the emergence of a shocking video of the Ukrainian soldier when he was surrounded by an armed group of Russian soldiers while he was unarmed.

Unexpectedly, Shadura did not rush to flee or beg the Russians and surrender to them. Rather, he put his cigarette in his mouth and said the phrase he was fighting for: "Glory to Ukraine." The result was that the Russians shot him dead.

This is despite the fact that the Geneva Convention relating to Prisoners of War stipulates that it is forbidden to kill or injure an enemy member who surrenders or is hors de combat.

Commenting on the scene of the execution of the soldier, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said, "Video footage showed how the occupiers brutally killed the soldier who bravely told them glory to Ukraine. I want us all to unite to respond to his words glory to the hero, glory to the heroes, glory to Ukraine."

On the other hand, the Russian Ministry of Defense did not comment on the video of the execution of the Ukrainian soldier, but at the end of last year it accused the Ukrainian forces of executing more than 10 Russian prisoners of war.

How did the pioneers of communication sites interact with the scene?

On social media, the video sparked mixed reactions, as the activist Rahim Shather expressed his admiration for the courageous position of the Ukrainian soldier and said, "I like those men who do not fear death for the sake of their causes and face them with disdain and indifference to it. Those are the ones who deserve immortality, and what happened around you, but You were doomed to die in a tight zebrafish."

As for tweeter Mumtaz Al-Hanash, he saw that the execution of the Ukrainian soldier by bullets is not considered brutal, but rather it is one of the most merciful methods of execution, and he wrote, "Where is the brutality in the text, the military execution by bullets is one of the most merciful methods of execution, meaning in a method of execution that is less violent than it?"

As for the admiral's account, he saw that it was not courageous to execute an unarmed soldier, and said, "Degenerate cowards kill an unarmed soldier, who is considered by all customs a prisoner of war."

Muthanna's account commented, "We saw the same scenes from the Ukrainian army, the operation of both armies being criminal mercenaries."

In turn, tweeter Hassan Al-Olayan saw that the soldier died with dignity and courage, and said, "A man died standing tall, defending his land against the invaders, and the method of killing is done only by a coward devoid of manhood and morals."

It is noteworthy that this soldier turned into an icon and a symbol in his country, as he was painted on the walls with his cigarette, and became the main concern of the media, artists, and communication platforms, with the last phrase he said: "Glory to Ukraine."
