Soldiers Help Reunite Ukrainian Man With His Pet Husky In Bombed Town Of Bucha

A husky has been reunited with its owner in the Ukrainian town of Bucha after they became separated during Russia's relentless attack.

Troops found the stray dog called ‘Nessie’ in the besieged town on the outskirts of Kyiv after Russian troops fled the area.

They managed to find out who the adorable dog belonged to and organised a reunion at a supermarket parking lot, according to The Express.

An Instagram account for Belarusian soldiers fighting for Ukraine against Russia posted a video of the beautiful moment that shows the husky running faster and yelping with joy as it finds its owner.

They wrote alongside the clip: "During Bucha's release we found Nessie's dog left alone. But thanks to our friends we found her hosts and today she is back to them.

"As long as some treat people like animals, we are fighting for the lives of not only humans but every animal!

The video has since made its way onto to Twitter and has racked up hundreds of thousands of views.

Unsurprisingly, a lot of love poured out on social media, as many users commented on how heartwarming the reunion was.

One user wrote: “I can’t stop watching. I wish I could hit (heart) a million times for this. Oh the stories this pup has to tell. You can just hear it. How beautiful, yet sad.”

Another commented: “I love people who love dogs and are loved by dogs. #dogsoftwitter”

A third person said: “I am going to go hug my dogs, and then I’m going to go hug the husky next door.”

It's a small glimmer of good news to come out of Bucha after Ukrainian authorities discovered more than 400 bodies in the town since Russian forces left.

After troops fled some areas in Kyiv, the Mayor of Bucha, Taras Shapravskyi, confirmed that more than 300 innocent civilians were killed by Chechen soldiers allied to Russia.

According to ABC News, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy also said in a video address that children were among those killed, while many victims also had their hands tied behind their back before their deaths.

"Their hands were tied behind their back and they were shot in the back of the head or in the eyes right on the streets," he said.

"Civilian cars with people were driven over. Women and girls were raped. And the investigation has just started.

"We haven't yet collected all the testimonies. We haven't yet located all the burials, searched all the basements where Russians were torturing people."
