Both the newlyweds were applauded and the bride looks to have swapped her helmet for a white veil as she smiled and held Valeriy's hand. There is also a soldier among the lot that appears to be wearing an Orthodox Christian cross, often seen at weddings in the country where the religion is followed by a majority of people.
The footage was shared by Paul Ronzheimer, a reporter for German news outlet BILD-Zeitung.? ?
The couple is part of Ukraine's Territorial Defence Force, which according to reports is a branch of the Ukrainian military made up of civilian reservists used to bolster the defence of the nation against Vladimir Putin's invasion.
