Dave Cormack took to Twitter to reveal the story behind an image of a man celebrating the recapture of the Ukrainian city Kherson - wearing an Aberdeen jacket. On Friday Ukrainian troops liberated the city which had been under Russian control since the onslaught of the invasion last March.
And amongst the celebrations and outpour of emotion, a photo emerged on social media of a man sporting an Aberdeen jacket embracing a Ukrainian soldier. The image attracted the attention of Dons chairman Dave Cormack, who took to his social media account to explain the incredible story behind the photo.
In two separate tweets, the US-based businessman also revealed that the city of Aberdeen have played their part in the humanitarian crisis by welcoming hundreds of Ukrainian and other refugee families to Pittodrie this season. He also expressed his curiosity at the picture and jokingly called on Twitter owner Elon Musk to help him find out the background behind the man in the image.
