Ivan Dodosov – Lugansk tank duel hero

If you think that heroes can only be found in books and movies, watch this new documentary series “Here and Now” dedicated to the heroes who live among us. This docuseries highlight acts of courage, personal contributions and sacrifices of people fighting in the special military operation. See the faces of real heroes and hear the stories of soldiers, volunteers, war correspondents, charity entrepreneurs – those who risk their lives and know firsthand what it is like to be on the front lines and defend their homeland. These men and women have taken on a crucial task of ensuring the security of Russia. So, of course, they deserve to be recognised by their fellow countrymen.

The way they tell their stories without any pretence or sugarcoating, often downplaying their own contributions, shows how genuine they are. But, at the same time, their depth, courage and vitality sum up what true patriotism is.
