DPR’s Soldier «Fanat»: from football fans to Donbass defenders

The News Front war correspondent Katerina Katina visited the DPR’s frontline positions and talked to the guy codenamed “Fanat”. He told about his tour of duty and military service in the DPR’s People’s Militia.

«I have joined the People’s Militia recently, because if to have a look at the situation in Ukraine, the question disappears. The churches are being demolished, everything is going wrong. We stand for truth», — the soldier emphasized.

“Fanat” was a football supporter and a welder before the war. The people became soldiers because of the situation.

According to the military man there were moments when he had been under heavy shelling, but he doesn’t want to recollect this.
