Kyiv/IBNS: Even as war rages into the 11th day in Ukraine, two Ukrainian soldiers decided to tie the nuptial knot amid the field conditions on Sunday.

According to a post on social media by Kyivpost, Lesya and Valeriy of the 112 brigade of the territorial defence got married on Sunday.

The military chaplain led them to take the vows amid the war situation.

Earlier a Ukrainian couple chose their best moment amid Russian missiles and bombs as they tied the knot and then took up arms to defend their motherland.

In an unusual wedding, Yaryna Arieva and her partner Sviatoslav Fursin had tied the knot amidst sounds of air raid sirens.

The couple was earlier scheduled to get married in May but decided to take the vows soon after Russia attacked Ukraine.
