A Ukrainian soldier has been praised for saving the life of a stabbing victim during a trip to Venice.
Yanis Tereshchenko, a 32-year-old teacher who enlisted in the Ukrainian army’s third assault brigade immediately after Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022, was on his way to his hotel with his wife and his five-year-old son in the Rialto district when he witnessed an altercation between two young men.
