Ukrainian Wives Of Fallen Soldiers Come Together For Support Online

- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2023
- Women who have lost their partners in battle against Russian invaders say the word "widow" is too painful to accept. Coming together in a Facebook group, they offer the mutual support and understanding they say can only come from someone going through the same kind of grief.

To the wife’s of fallen soldiers … your sadness is heartbreaking 💚 your bravery inspiring. I keep you in my thoughts . Slava Ukraini
@@StrongRespect ruzzia is invading its neigbour again like it has for the last 400 years to try anf impose their missery on others. But we will not have it
@@StrongRespect The only thing Russia is liberating is its soldiers and innocent civilians from their lives.
It is hard especially for widows with kids. Find goody men, rebuild the family would be super hard. Usually kids would need good father, But good men already go with their own good women. Maybe an international aid is needed, introduce marriages, fix the families, fix the broken hearts, Those women and kids need real care. T__T
Eto vam nato
As a European it is tragic for young Ukrainian and Russian Europeans to be dying but even worse to see just about every country on both sides calling for the fighting to continue instead of demanding negotiations.
My heart truly goes out to these women, and everyone who has lost loved ones as a result of this war. 🖤
I think you also think about the people who was colonized.
Had Ukraine been allowed to negotiate peace in March her husband would be Alive. Thank the west for stopping peace

ILLEGAL WAR
@Johnny H Johns that term is the foundation of all law. no special rules for you or me.
God bless you brave women of Ukraine stay strong your men are heroes🇺🇦💪
There's rarely a cause worth dying for but this is one. The men are heroes and so are the women supporting them. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
They were cancer in this world, they are gone straight to Bandera where they belong
And it will be for every nassy in this fuked up "country"
It is unwise to die for the NATO geopolitical interests.
☝️it's very unwise to die for an impotent old man that's completely destroyed his country for a 3 day "special military operation" that's now going into a year.👋🤡
@@cristo6007 It's up to you to decide. "War to the last Ukrainian" is your choice. Only then do not say that Putin did not offer you a peace agreement in March 2022.
@@user-zz2of4zk6b Putler did not offer a peace agreement. That's propaganda, straight from RT to youtube! 💙 💛 💪
Bless them all. I really feel for them. Damn Putin and his pointless war ! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦❤️
My heart bleeds for the Ukrainian people. This horror has to end! We must give them everything they need, not what we want to give them. Every day we drag our feet is costing precious lives. Slava Ukraini!!
It will not end until NATO stops supplying weapons.
Agree wholeheartedly!
Ever weapon we send will be held by a Ukrainian who will die holding it.
The more you send weapons to Ukraine the more they will die, and the more stories of such will come, Ukraine won't defeat Russia in this war, best option is to cease fire on both sides and engage in negotiations, fire can't take fire down, more western weapons will bring more Russian weapons, and more Ukrainians will die
@@enriquelaroche5370 Apart from the ones they are selling off.
My heart breaks for these women. Russian terror must be brought to an end. Heroyam Slava! Slava Ukraini💛💙💛💙
Me too
Just for a sec imagine what would have happened in the other side..don't just look on one side...
Yes my dear. Russians are criminals. I remember Siria
NATO buildup at Russia border is not going to help.
I hope you are of military age to join the fight.
Don't just sit somewhere in Europe calling for innocent lives that have no wealth to be accepted in Europe as refugees to do the fight for you and your generation
I am so sorry for your loss! Your husbands were heroes and will be remembered as such. Glory to the heroes. Love from Canada.🇨🇦
Bullshit
Glory to the Heroes 💙💛 Stay strong, Ukraine.
Thanks to the beloved president of Ukraine for condemning this people to death.
Their deaths were unnecessary but we feel their loss. Lots of love to you all. ❤️🇦🇺
Slava 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦.
This is heartbreaking. These husbands are heroes forever. 🇺🇸💛🇺🇦
did you try to send them your kisses, hugs and prayers via youtube ?
@@MatejzKosic Russian brother of bitter: why spit sh_t? Review your spew, reassess your mess, rescind your send, repent of what you sent! I send you kisses and hugs. Let’s you and me walk together in field of dry grass, Sage, and tumbleweed; dancing with scorpion but avoiding noisy snake, letting butterfly land on hand! Cheers to you, brother of Communist whisper. After the war, let’s meet for a drop of Russian Vodka, and do a toast for peace.
This is why I support Ukraine. 🇺🇦
Slava Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republic!
🇷🇺💪
City streets will be named after these Heroes. Glory to Ukraine. 🇵🇱🇺🇦
How heartbreaking...Gone too soon...God be with them and all the Ukrainian people. Heroyam slava!

Sorry for your loss. Those men died for the freedom of Ukraine. They will never be forgotten. I hope one day you find peace. Glory to Ukraine.
Eternal Memory, all the fallen will live forever in their loved one's memories. Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦
hope you are of military age to join the fight.
Don't just sit somewhere in Europe calling for innocent lives that have no wealth to be accepted in Europe as refugees to do the fight for you and your generation
So sorry for your loss. May your memories strengthen your spirit.
So many families destroyed, so many wives, children, grandchildren, homes that will never be the same again... There are no words for so much pain...
Praying and Salute for her husband
Respect for the great warriors from Ukraine and their family members ❤

God bless these women. The road is long and hard and they are fighting in their own way just like their husbands did.❤❤️🩹
Am without any words so sorry to much pain and sorrow this war is unforgiving 🇺🇦 Glory to UKRAINE 🇺🇦 Glory to HEROES 🇺🇦
Very sad,my heart goes out to them,god bless ukaine 🇺🇦
They are the Wives of fallen HEROES. That is what all of them are for me. Never to be forgotten and always in our hearts. Their fight is an example for all of us who love Freedom, Democracy and our own countries. They fought against a criminal tyrant, enemy of our values.
“Your life is now his life. Your victory is now his victory”. What a words to encourage someone to move on ❤
To the wives and children of the brave honorable fallen soldiers. We send our love hoping you find strength and healing. 💔❤️❤️❤️❤️....
Sappiate che il mondo intero vi è vicino e che, se può essere di conforto anche piccolo come un granello di sabbia, avete tutto il mio rispetto e amore dall'Italia ❤
I really feel with you.. I'm sry. What men! Died to protect you, the most beautiful thing.🇸🇪🇺🇦
Your victory's are the fallen hero's legacy, they gave their life for family, love and country, for democracy. All women stand with you, crying, grieving, praying that this criminal invasion is stopped immediately. May Russia pay dearly for it's crime's, it's money to rebuild Ukraine, educate and care for all Ukrainian people, to honor those who have saved us all in the rest of the world from tyranny. May you all find strength. 💙🇺🇦💛
God Bless these Ladies!!! The World is with you ❤️!!!🇺🇲🇺🇦🇺🇲🇺🇦
To the late and fallen heroes,
You all are true and elite heroes and legends of the 21st century. Your wives/husbands, children and families are eternally proud of you forever for your due diligence and sacrifices... as is your countrymen and the free world that you've just fought for. You are their heroes.
May you reign forever.🎖️🏅🎖️🕊️
@@StrongRespect only thing no one will remember is the trainloads of dead ruzzians who ruzzia dont even Care to send home. Their soliders lives are worthless apatently
@@StrongRespect I'm trying to work out what it is about this particular video that got so many trolls activated... There aren't always as many troll comments as this. Though they are always as vile as yours. Слава Україні
This is WW2 only Russia changed focus from Poland/Finland/East Germany/Baltic states to Ukraine. These countries know what Ukraine suffers, and they are the true hero conutries in EU. I truely admire the courage and resiliance of Ukraine! 100% love, support and peace to Ukraine from Sweden!
As a German I'd like to point out that this time it was not us who started it. We had our fair share in tearing part Ukraine when Ms Merkel insisted that EU membership would mean giving up links to Russia. We did not start it militarily though.
It is also true that we are sending leopard tanks now, while last time it was tigers and panthers.
Actually, there are more parallels than I had realized and you may be right after all.
@@erikt1713The first years(1939-41) Russia was actually brothers in arms with Germany. Before his death, Stalin achieved almost as much horror as Adolf. The difference is that germany changed totally and apologized. Russia apologized for nothing, and changed nothing. Actually Stalin was a few years ago voted in Russia to be the greatest leader of all times, is not that absurd?
@@joeordinary209 Soviet Union was the last country to sign non-aggression pact with Nazi Germany, after all major European powers already done it. Hitler was propelled into power with the support of American industrialists and bankers. Stalin tried to create anti-Hitler coalition, but Great Britain and France rejected his offer, at that point he didn't have any choice but to sign non-aggression pact. Most of European counties fought WW2 on the side of Nazi Germany as allies or volunteers, even the "neutral" Switzerland sent military medics to the Russian front to treat wounded German soldiers.
@@froimkatz8214 Don't sugarcoat the facts...Instead of helping the Poles against nazies, Stalin attacked Poland jointly with them, and committed genocide against the Poles...sure not something they "had to do".
Pur fascisma & imperialism. Nice films with Russian troops masrching with nazies in Poland on RUclips....In any case the main thing here is that its absolute absurd of Pro Russians to rant on Ukraine abouit nazies/banderas. Russian truly have a legacy that is much shadier, still today. Worshiping Stalin is no better than worshiping Adolf.
@Joe Ordinary It's not just that Russia didn't apologise, which would have meant they could move on, but that they actively lie about and deny their past crimes. There is a whole State infrastructure in Russia of propaganda and lying through television and social media, with paid trolls collecting their little handful of roubles for posting falsehoods on social media.
War Is Hell. The Family Pays Greatly. Rest In Peace Brother. Bless All Women and Children of The KIA soldiers.
💛💙
Glory to the Heroes!! And their loved ones!!! ❤️❤️❤️👑
They will be f'king Western men in Europe soon 🤣.
Bye bye ex dead Husband.
One salution is send your president on front line and aim good

They've fallen so their loved ones could keep on living. Glory to Ukraine from Georgia.
A wonderful initiative. Strength and future happiness to all the Ladies of Fallen Heroes. Warmth and great respect you all, family and friends
💛💙💛💙💛💙💛💙💛💙💛
I keep you and families of fallen solyin my prayers. Support from India 🇮🇳
These men are dying for their Home, Family and for Ukraine. Russians are dying for nothing. Cynical horrible deaths for a Despot.
SLAVA UKRAINI 🇺🇦
True - the difference between these women and Russian women whose husbands died in Ukraine is that - the husbands / partners of the Ukrainian women died for a noble and just cause, defending their country. They Ukrainians and us can look up to their fallen as true heroes and protectors of their country. 🇺🇦
I'm so sorry for your losses, but your men are Heros to be remembered with pride.
Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 🌻
He fought and died protecting you. That is what men do.
Fac war , you don't protect us 💔🖤
Смотрю и плачу! Храни Вас Госпдь!🙏😪💔
Such heroic people should never die. Glory to the heroes.
Laying down your life for your loved ones is the strongest show of love you can give. These soldiers died for a just cause, a right cause of defending their identity and freedom.
They fought for a better future and Ukraine will therefore in the near future be part of the EU and NATO organisations. Russia will reap what they sow.
So Sorry for the sad loss of your Hero soldier husbands. They will not die in vain. My deepest sympathies to all wives of the fallen and your families ❤️😔 🇬🇧🇺🇦
This war need to end. These families don't need to go through this pain and sorrow
The strength of Spartan women ... 😢
Heroyam Slava
🙏🇺🇦💙✊
These men died defending the families they loved. They will be remembered. Slava Ukraini!
Its no wonder these brave fallen soldiers have such great partners. My heart aches with them.

One day you will see each other again.
The heroes are not just the soldiers but also their wives and parents.We grieve with you on your great loss at the same time admire you with respect.

Ma'am, my condolences to you and your family, sacrifice isn't something that's asked for, pride, honor and love is what family and country deserve, for the freedom and the right for families to live in Peace without Dictator's trying to erase the Ukrainian people from existing. RIP Ukrainian Hero, Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇦, so, so sorry for your loss. Ma'am.
I knew how it feel...when we lost someone we love..I need years and still..stay strong...for all of you...Slava Ukraine...
These men were so brave and so are wives, they should know they are heroes too and they have significant role to oppose hitler of our time. Slava Ukraini heroes forever!!!
True Hero! Support from Portugal. Glória à Ucrânia!
You mean rather; Glória a Deus! To God only goes the glory! If the many countries involved in this war paid less attention to nationalism and greed and their corrupt leaders these Ukrainians, (and foreign mercenaries and Russians) would not be dieing.
Yes, great words- "Live for two, fight for two now". And for us, all over the world, witnessing this injustice, we have to do the same for these suffering people- live for al and fight for all of them, any way we can. Nothing can justify this cruel destruction of lovely lives, families, homes. We have the obligation to help ,support and re-build . There but for the grace of God go we.
GLORY TO UKRAINE 🙏💙💛🙏 Sorry for your losses to all who have lost husbands, wives and children in this God forsaken war. 😪

Truly tragic. Their deaths cannot be in vain. Give Ukraine all the weapons they need to expel these vermin from their lands.
Won't evea happen...
What an absolute tragedy. 😔
Husbands and Partners, lost in the prime of their lives, to a senseless war, initiated by a soulless war criminal.
Sharing your sadness as you remember your loved ones.⚘⚘⚘
Glory to the heroes and defenders of Ukraine! 🇺🇲 🇺🇦
Just the saddest, saddest thing. Be strong. You will never be the same again but your lost dear ones would want you to have happiness, however long it may take. 💔🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇿🇦

Humans still never learned from history! Wars only bring heartaches! I'm so sorry for your loss! I will always pray for you! Be strong!
May the soul.of your fallen brave soldiers rest in peace ukraine is a role model.for standing up the world is on your side.
Breaks my heart, man. Not just soldiers of Ukraine. Even the Russians who give their lives for the country
" Your life is now his life. Your victory is his victory " Respect!!!
It's so heart breaking for the partners and thier children..
God bless these ladies in their grief to comfort and to sustain them.
The World Wars were full of young men and women who married right before the husband's embarkation and he never came back. It's hard to imagine anything sadder. The idea of dying for freedom will always be bitter sweet.
They won't be sad soon.
Lots of small co'ck in Europe are waiting 🤣.
@@tradingwizard562 You know about "small co'ck" do you, Sonny?
Does it bother you a lot?
Glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦. He fought for his country. He is a real hero.
I've shed many tears since this insanity started for the tragedies occurring every day, and there is no greater tragedy than the senseless loss of life of these ordinary warriors and heroes. I have been in and out of Ukraine regularly providing aid to the units and will be back again very soon, as these warriors need our support to win and regain their country and freedom so their losses are not in vain. My prayers to all these wives and their departed warriors, be strong, continue their legacy and remember we will not let them be forgotten....Lest We Forget 🙏🙏🇺🇦
I'm too old to be crying like this...
Courageous wives....indeed wives of fallen soldiers who died defending their homeland.
Sad story!
My heart goes out to these women and their families. Words won't help but if I could help you all I would. May your heroes rest in peace. Stay strong, much love from Aotearoa New Zealand.
Respect and honor to the fallen and their families.
So sad to see them in pain ..... nothing to replace the relationship you all had, it's hard to utter a word to pacify them....i am in great pain after watching this video......
God bless and protect all the Ukrainian widow's
Mutual support is so important, including when you look at the sunset for both of you. Slava Ukraine and the Ukrainian people!
