In Brussels, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy, accompanied by Belgian Minister of Foreign Affairs Hadja Lahbib, visited a military hospital where Ukrainian defenders are undergoing treatment.
The President visited soldiers who have been receiving care in the burn center since early September. They suffered mine blast injuries and second to third-degree burns while defending Ukraine in the Donetsk region. Their current condition is stable, and they undergo intensive therapy daily.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy spoke with the warriors, thanked them for defending Ukraine, and awarded them state honors.
He also expressed gratitude to Belgium and specifically to Belgian doctors for saving the lives of Ukrainian defenders.
