Nadiya Pavlivna holds her grandson Oleksandr Revtiukh, 33, a Ukrainian serviceman who lost his left arm and most of his left leg in multiple mine blasts in 2023, at her house during his first visit after his injury, amid Russia's attack on Ukraine, in his hometown of Nizhyn, Ukraine, November 24, 2023. Revtiukh is close to his family, and recently visited his parents' home in Nizhyn, northeast of Kyiv. Waiting outside, his grandmother wept as she embraced Revtiukh, whom she had not seen since his arm and leg were torn off in two separate mine blasts. "My little Sasha. I thank God that you are alive," she sobbed, using the diminutive of his first name. REUTERS/Thomas Peter
