The US embassy in Kyiv says it “salutes” an elderly couple who stood up to three Russian soldiers storming their property.

Footage posted on social media on Friday shows the armed troops rattling the metal door of the compound before gaining entry to the property.

With gunshots ringing out in the background, a man and a woman can be seen in the video walking up to the soldiers, unperturbed by their advances.

The clip then goes on to show the couple walking the Russians back to the metal gate, before shutting them out of the property completely.

The US Embassy in Ukraine’s capital wrote on Twitter: “Today we salute this elderly couple, who stood up to three Russian soldiers.”

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
