Distressing footage of a shell-shocked Ukrainian Soldier suffering from a mental breakdown is being circulated around several social media platforms today. The footage shows other Soldiers trying to comfort the man as he has a panic attack while surrounded by his friends.

The date and location that this footage was filmed is unknown. This video shows a person under serious mental duress due to the stressors of combat, and only re-affirms the need for post-war care for veterans of armed conflicts. These are the types of combat related injuries that stay with people for decades after the wars have ended.
