Fiona Irving/BBCThe Russian shell has traveled to Kent for a nearby Ukrainian military treatment after being injured in the attack.
Dimitro is one of the first Ukrainian soldiers to behave NHS in England about Putin’s full -scale attack on Ukraine almost three years ago.
The Ukrainian army allowed him to go to the UK in January, after a letter from Mad Stone and Tinburge Wells, which he will take care of under the NHS.
He is now living in Kent with his wife Mariana and young daughter Diana, who came to the UK in 2022 as a refugee.
DMYTRO BusienkovThe Dimitro was a project manager in Kiev before the war, but he signed up to fight for his homeland on the first day of Putin’s Ukraine attack on Ukraine.
He was serving on the frontline in the Donetsk area when his unit was attacked last July.
He took shelter with several men and as soon as he received shells, two targeted his hideout.
The Dimitro was the only one, from the shelter, which survived.
He initially thought he would recover quickly.
When he lay down in the hospital bed, he checked his hands and his legs were still there.
He remembered thinking: “That’s all right. I will be good in a hurry and continue to fight.”
But he did not realize the extent of injuries.
His knees and right hand were badly damaged and he was severely damaged by the nerves.
He carried out 23 operations and had to learn how to run again.
The wife of the Dimitro, Mariana, spent hours waiting for her husband to bring her permission to bring her permission to the UK.
He said: “When the war stops, we are happy to stay together in our country.”
For now, she said, she feels safer in the UK.
Marina BasinkovDimitro now goes to school every morning to her eight -year -old daughter, Diana.
He said it was the best physiotherapy to walk 500 meters on the crutches to reach the school gates.
In the meantime, Diana is happy that her father is living with her.
He said, “Instead of just going to phone calls,” he said, “You can talk to her and get hugged when you want. “
Andrew Marshall/BBCDimetro said he hoped he would soon walk without crutches.
He also said that when he is enough to return home to help war efforts, he has a “responsibility”.
