Russians leave locals to starve in liberated Ukrainian towns | Life on the frontline

- Jack Ross is a British volunteer aid worker helping to deliver supplies to the Ukrainian front line.
He returned to Ukraine from his UK home as soon as news broke of the Ukrainian army's successful Kharkiv offensive.
"My role in going over there early is to make sure that recently liberated people have enough food to survive." Said Jack explaining his initial plan was to return in November before the counter-offensive changed everything. Adding: "We saw after the Russians stopped occupying places like Bucha, Irpin and Chernihiv they literally killed every living being in sight… Just to deprive the local population of any food sources."

His return was so last minute, he had to do without his usual band of British-led Vans Without Borders volunteers, instead enlisting the help of Eduard and Justin who provided the necessary support as they travelled along dangerous bombed-out roads.
En route, they met Commander Oleg Shiryaev, who was pivotal in granting them outsider access to the heavily restricted Kharkiv areas.
After giving aid to people living in Izyum, Jack and his team headed to Donetsk, to give food to rural villagers living close to the frontline. Their time there was cut short as security advisors warned anyone who was not military personnel to evacuate due to a 'Russian rocket attack in Kramatorsk'.
"It’s concerning when our security advisor friends said they’ve left already and we’ve got to get out sharpish," said Jack as he and his team packed up and sped out of Donestk.
Jack and the Vans Without Borders team will stay in Ukraine, as the army liberates more territory along the frontline.

What a lovely lad. I bet his Mum is so proud of him. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
His mum so proud,omg.
And the queen so dead,555
2:47 Commander Oleg saying "Napoleon's syndrome".about Putin was spot on🙂
Yup. Short with a Napoleonic Complex. I didn't realize exactly how short he was until I saw him beside the other men with their hands over the others at the farse "Annexation Ceremony".
The ginger haired lad is a solid human being, he should be given as much resources as possible, trucks, everything he needs to be able to do what he does.
its spooky time
@@4_youtube_is_dead I agree, the act of distributing bags of pasta to hungry people is certainly ‘spooky’ in nature 🇺🇦
All my respect for these people who risk their lives to help those who suffer.
And for the Ukrainian people who really have a lot to teach us about the true meaning of life.
parabéns 👏 pra vcs soldados que luta pra salvar o povo de vcs dás ✋ de um homem sem alma Flauvia cidade Santo Antônio de Pádua parabéns 👏

this poor ukrainien people die for the ego of Zelensky a puppet of US , feel sorry for them
The Russians have had a history of starving out the Ukrainians.Hopefully that won`t happen again and three cheers to Mr. Ross for what he is doing and I hope he remains unhurt.
This recorded in Ukraine controlled territory lmao ofcourse there is no food
Holomodor entered the chat
when zelensky visited and took photos for the press he could of brought a convoy of food and clothes for the peasents
Why didn’t the Russians leave any food?
Because their ration packs were past sell by date so they ‘liberated’ the food from those people that they ‘liberated’ in a gesture of ‘goodwill’.
@@metapol118 does putler even leave bunker?!?!?
i feel so humbled by Ukrainian resilience
Be safe! Slava 🇺🇦 ❤️ from 🇨🇦. This is one of the reasons why we'll win 🏆 👏
That would be a stone trip to travel around Ukraine helping folks. Gods work
Ukrainians are the most amazing people. They are all heroes. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 ❤
Interesting how people tend to romanticise and make general assumptions. There have been lots of war crimes committed by Ukrainians according to Amnesty International

Heroic effort to feed the hungry. God bless Ukraine.
its spooky time
If Russia cant look after thier soldiers that are fighting for them , how can they look after liberated towns.SLAVA UKRAINE 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Russia only looks after Putin.
Your a sheep for the west ba ba 😂
Especially when their (Russa's) idea of liberation is to destroy everything (and everybody) in sight. It's just so horrible!
*Occupied* by Russians, *liberated* by Ukrainians
The world well rebuild Ukraine 🇺🇦. So proud of this man. Need more like him in the world. Keep up the very good work 👏 🙌 👍 👌 💪 😀 👏.
Another heartbreaking example of why Russia can no longer be part of the civilized world.
Russia never has been part of the civilised world unfortunately. Not the general population, by and large, but the totalitarian oppressors who 'govern' them and the military who enforce the dictators like putin.
Not all Russians, but definitely Putin and anyone who enabled/supported him need to be excluded.
its not like it was already sanctioned back to 13th century
@@grievetan At the rate things are going the West will probably need to take it back all the way back to the freaking Stone Ages. That's presuming the Russians don't end up doing it to themselves.
terrorist state. They should be isolated even after the war. They have no place in a peaceful world
We love Ukraine 🇺🇦 💪🏽🙏
God bless Ukraine 🇺🇦 🙏🇺🇸
Well done, this is a very worthwhile way to spend your life. Helping others is a Nobel cause! Please keep up the good work!👍🏻
I wish we could do more for Ukraine
get zelensky out and peace will be
@@giselameunier3845 Putin must get out then there will be peace.
@@giselameunier3845 zelenskyy is a genius and well respected among his people. It's difficult times but he is doing his best and it's a damn good job, better than most could do
True heroes. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
giving them that much Pasta and they are without water? Smart!! lmao
@@metalsnake00 🤣🤣🤣🤣
True heroes probably wouldn't record it.
@@metalsnake00 they were also handing out water.
its spooky time
Great stuff. What heroes. Perspective is needed. UK isn't being bombed. If our bills are higher at least we are not living without shelter, food and clothes. Complaining is selfish against this Ukrainian backdrop.
what about the homeless, mental ill, hospitals and care homes in the UK they all will need extra help for heating this winter, the food and clothes are in Ukraine warehouses like the man said in the report, millions of pounds being wasted by mismanagement and chaos
@@metapol118 it's one of those greater evil v lesser evil moskal .
@@adriansheldon7778 evil is happening all over the world not just on the Ukrainian border
@@metapol118 exactly this is that time some call armegeddon some ragnorok but it is a pivotal point if ruSSia succeeds it will embolden the evil dictators around the world .
@@metapol118 typical whataboutism
True heroes change lives for good and not evil.. God be with those loving ❤️ people.
A good man Jack Ross, providing for the people and giving us an insite in to daily life of the war. Then the commander has such a pretty tea pot making a cup of tea for his guest. So ordinary civilized everyday thing to do. This has me crying, bless him.
God bless this man and his team!
Awesome group doing great work. I sure hope that Ukraine get's the equipment that they need to drive the Russian's all the way out. Stand with Ukraine.🟦🟨
God Bless UKRAINE 🇺🇦
Amen, keep praying!
God bless 🙏 Russia and Free Palestine .
@@suzannelacy8093 I AGREE WELL SAID
This work is soul lifting to watch. All my respect and love (and a bit of a donation -- though my usual charity is a Ukrainian group helping out people in Kherson province where the Russians still are but demand things in exchange for food)
God bless Ukraina! ❤️🇺🇦
These people are legends
4x4's Without Borders next time? Nothing but respect for this crew.
God bless this dude
Good job getting people some real help.
Shame on the large organisations , they should be in there right behind the Ukrainian soldiers .
Or at least get a food drop.
Have made a donation from New Zealand.
Right people should to be helping special the organizations ..
Shame on Indaia and China for their position in UN on Ukraine
its spooky time
Where are the church groups hmmm
UK loves Ukraine we will always help our brothers 🇺🇦💙💛🏴🇬🇧👏👏👏☝️
Brave, compassionate. Poor people seeing some kindness finally.
Much respect - there is humanity still, unfortunately not from Russia.
God bless Ukraine! May Our Lady of Czestochowa intercede with the Almighty to protect Ukraine from Putin’s aggression and bring about a just peace. May Putin, Lavrov, Shoigu and their minions be removed from power and tried for war crimes.
May St Therese of Lisieux, St John Paul II, St Faustina, Blessed Alicja and the Holy Angels help with this.
Jesus Christ is the only salvation.
Well done Jack Ross and associates. Check out MOISEY BONDARENKO playing his violin on the front line. War bringing out the best and the worst in humanity.
I love ukrain God bless ukrain

Only "The Telegraph" video where comments aren't turned off.
Ikr.
Most Ukraine Latest podcast videos have comments on. I think they tend to turn comments off on pure news vids, and are less likely to on the others.
Outstanding reporting! 💪🇺🇦❤️🇺🇦🌻🇺🇦🙏🏻
the barbarism of russia
@Peter Prentice Indeed, starvation torture and rape
@@phillipaclemons7261 And leaving their wounded on the battlefield and fleeing without them. Truly, an "evil empire."
True heroes is making good to everybody and not evil . Let's true heroes rise up around the world . 🌎 peace an love ❤️ to the whole world 🌎 the world change when we change for good..
Hello I’m new too your channel greetings from USA 👋
True heroes ❤️
Very clean well produce video expertly put together keeping the story line on the right track tons of money to produce this.
What struck me most, after the lack of food, was the fact that they need clothing and can't get any. If there is no running water it is difficult to wash the clothing they have , and I would imagine there is a great need for new underwear. People tend to donate outerwear more than anything.
Everyone should remember to help feed all winter long. Our winter can't be as bad as theirs is. 😥😥Donate to feed Ukraine. 🇺🇦
Great job!
Thanks lads
Brilliant work young man 👍👍👍👍👍🌈🌈🌈🥃🥃🥃❤️❤️
UN must supply foods.
Russia needs to be thrown off the UN Security council, it keeps using its veto to block any UN action.
@@eh1702 A lot of POOR COUNTRIES in the UN are Russian Bootlickers.
And a means to prepare/cook said foods.
@@kneau And that is in another vehicle. Geez, people can't even look beyond their nose to see what is really going on.
That's the charities job.
Nice Job!!
After all the harm that Russians soldier’s have done look what he said it’s not our war please go home they still show those animals respect that make me cry God bless him🇺🇦🇺🇸🇩🇴😢💔😌☮️🙏
The world finally sees what the Russians did in Eastern Europe in 1944 and everywhere else they set foot. Ukraine has the misfortune to be right next to them, but many were fed too much Russian "being superior" propaganda. I hope many can see the reality of it all. Thanks to this young man and his friends for helping the civilians caught up in the war.
I would left my home to go help civilians in need
Весь мир наблюдает за тем, что российские солдаты делают по-украински. Невероятно, что в 2022 году солдаты могут совершать такие ужасные поступки с другими людьми. Мир никогда этого не забудет. Любая армия является отражением своего народа, своих ценностей, своих принципов и своего обращения с невинными. То, что мир видит сегодня по телевизору, просто шокирует.
As long as there are humans there will be wars
Any army is a reflection of the person or persons who order them to do something. It's not a reflection of the average everyday civilian. And don't forget that the Russian men must serve a specific period of time in the military, like it or not.
Glory to Ukraine!!! shame to ruzzian bots))))
I wish there were more programs for NATO citizens to volunteer in non-combat roles in Ukraine. I would love to do that. I'm no soldier, but I can deliver food. I used to do that for a living. And I can drive like a bat out of hell if I need to!
Wow! Intense.
No water! I can’t imagine what I could do! I have water filtration gear from camping trips but that would not help without all the rivers near me.
Дякую за підтримку України !
Stay safe! The Ukrainian people are such so strong and determined. Putin doesn't stand a chance. Especially with people like this helping. 💙💛
Napoleon met his "Waterloo" and Putin has met his "Ukraine"! Long Live Ukraine and the "Spirit of Freedom" in their lives!
Lads with vans. Excellent
True bravery.
Hero!
Respect respect respect

7:36 It's not grad system. It's TOS system (thermobaric)
So this is how it all ends. Fascinating
👏👏👏good samaritans!
I get and appreciate what they are doing, but if the people don’t have water or heat, I don’t think handing out dry pasta is going to be of much help…
Providing dried pasta is better than having nothing provided, but what good is pasta if there's no water and power with which to prepare it for consumption? Maybe other items better than pasta are being distributed. Sorry for being negative, but I'm just wondering about it by imagining myself in the situation.
Yup .... there's only one vehicle that serves the entire area and never returns with anything else, just pasta, pasta, pasta, pasta ..... 🤦♀️
I'm sure there are rivers, etc. They can cook outside, if they have to!
Starvation is the definition of Russian's liberation. Greed...
🙏🙏🙏❤️🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇸🇬🇧🇪🇺🇨🇦
God bless ukraine citizens
laudible work
take care and be safe guys. ❤️
8:17 that looks about the place where we saw the drunk russian soldier with the flag.
Hero’s ❤
What is it with Russians stealing washing machines? I guess doing laundry by hand would kind of suck.
They looted and stole anything not nailed down. And I bet they’d find a way to take those too!
beautiful
Definitely hero's
Jack - all that and looks, too.
🙏💙💛
Long live Ukraine shame on Russia
Wonder if this is the convoy that got hit the other day 🤔
