    The Wider Image: One Ukrainian war amputee’s return to civilian

    Bohdan Tanchyn (C), a former machine gunner in the airborne division of the 25th Brigade who lost one leg fighting Russian forces, shows off his new prosthesis to his friends Dymytro Oliynyk (R) and Serhii at a rehabilitation center, amid Russia's attack on Ukraine, in Kyiv, Ukraine November 15, 2023. "I am a patient person," Tanchyn said. "If you see a light at the end of the tunnel, you go towards it. It's a different way of life right now, as if I have no legs, but I am still going to my metal workshop, still doing the work, still engaging in interesting things. It's not over yet, it's just going to be different, that's all." REUTERS/Thomas Peter
