Foreign volunteers serving in the Armed Forces of Ukraine (ZSU) are entitled to the same legal guarantees, payments, and medical support as Ukrainian military personnel, according to a report. Any injuries sustained are not grounds for automatic contract termination or dismissal.
Fighters with call signs "Chango" and "Scott", who are carrying out tasks in the Zaporizhzhia direction and have suffered serious injuries in battles, shared their own experience on how the mechanism of state support for wounded legionnaires works and what awaits them next.
