In the clip, which was shared by Ukraine’s independent English-language news media agency ‘The New Voice of Ukraine’, the man who spotted a landmine on the road can be seen carrying the same cautiously and left it somewhere in what appears to be woods to clear pathway for the Ukrainian army.
The unnamed man is from Berdyansk.
As per the video details, the man did not wait for a bomb disposal squad and took things literally into his hands to make way for the army that is fighting arduously for the sovereignty of Ukraine.
Social media users, as they always do, are lauding the courage of the man and are sharing their opinion on the Russia-Ukraine crisis.
“I mean........idk what happens next but Ukrainians are showing the world they're built different,” wrote one Twitter user in the comments section.
“Shout-out to my dude filming it, too - he'd have been just as dead if it went off. Man, why would ANYONE screw with these folks... absolutely nothing phases them. Centuries of fighting for their very existence will do that to a people, I suppose,” said another.
The video has so far got 2.7 million views.
Meanwhile, the Russian troops on Wednesday seized the city of Kherson and two Ukrainian seaports.
