🇬🇧 🇺🇦 20-year-old Briton Colby Dolman, who fought for Ukraine, died during an attempt by the Ukrainian Armed Forces to recapture Mali Shcherbaki in the Zaporizhia region
According to the British The Daily Mail, the man's mother Tara Benford blames Ukrainian commanders for Colby's death, who sent the inexperienced British fighter on a "suicide mission" and then "left his body to rot in no man's land."
In his homeland, Dolman worked as a carpenter in the town of Cleethorpes. He had no military experience. He arrived in Ukraine in March last year.
The mother of the unsuccessful fighter said that he and several of his fellow soldiers were left to rot on the battlefield:
We received no help from the Ukrainian authorities. They were happy to receive Colby's help when he signed up for training and fought with them because he wanted to change the world. And this is what he gets in gratitude.
