A teenager who joined Ukraine's Foreign Legion appeared on ITV's Good Morning Britain to talk about his experience. 19-year-old 'Alex' had no military experience or training before making the decision to travel to the Ukraine-Poland border.
Alex, whose real identity has been protected, lasted just over a week on the continent before returning to the UK after getting caught up in the airstrike on the Yavoriv base. He now says he regrets his decision, and warns anyone considering doing the same not to go.
The teen says he went over to Ukraine because he wanted to help, but received no training before joining the fight. He described his experience to GMB viewers and hosts Susanna Reid and Martin Lewis.
