Rising from the trials and flames of an unprovoked Russian assault, Ukrainian legends have emerged. Ukraine soldiers and citizens have held more ground than anyone expected. Their bravery has been one of the biggest stories in the battle of Ukraine. Putin may have underestimated the shear strength and willpower of the Ukrainian citizens.
President Zelenskyy
Few knew his name last month, that’s not the case today. His bravery and courage have made him a rally point of strength for his nation.
President Zelenskyy has been leading his troops from the front lines. He has refused to abandon his country and frequently shares videos encouraging troops even while standing on the battlefield.
When the United States offered to evacuate him his response was:
The fight is here,
President Zelenskyy
I need ammunition, not a ride!
Chuck Norris may have his first real competition. This man is a legend.
Do you need a lift?
Perhaps some of the best and most humiliating assaults on Russia are coming from the ordinary legendary citizens of Ukraine. This man was driving along and noticed a Russian tank that had run out of gas. The man calmly rolled down his window and asked the Russian soldiers if they needed a ride back to Russia.
Farmer tows off Russian tank!
Okay, so the man above was a legendary troll. How about this guy who didn’t just mock the Russians, he drove off with their tank!!! The Russian solider may have a hard time explaining this to Putin.

The 13 Ukrainian soldiers defending Snake Island had these words for the invading Russian warship. A recent update reports they have been captured not killed by Russian forces.
The Ghost of Kyiv
The Ghost of Kyiv was one of the first legends to appear on Twitter. While information has been hard to verify, the story lives on. True or not this legend embodies the strength of the Ukrainian people in their David vs Goliath battle.
The Ghost of Kyiv is a Ukrainian fighter pilot who has been credited with taking out 6 Russian fighter jets in air to air combat. This would give him the prestigious status of fighter ace, an honor that started after World War 1 for any pilot that took down 5 enemy aircraft.
