King Charles passed on a heartfelt message to a Ukrainian soldier as he visited troops being trained for the war against Russia by UK forces.
Charles watched as they were put through their paces learning trench warfare – famously used by First World War troops – which has become a factor of the conflict in Ukraine.
At an undisclosed location in Wiltshire, the King looked on intently as the men – many civilians who have no experience of the military – stormed a trench a few hundred metres away as the mock gun battle raged.
