A British ex-soldier who died while fighting for the International Legion in Ukraine was deeply loved by his family, who are very sad about his death.
According to the BBC, Jordan Chadwick, who is 31 years old and from Burnley, Lancashire, went to Russia in October 2022 to fight against them.
He was found dead in the water. His hands were tied together behind his back.
Mr Chadwick’s family found out that he died on June 26 from Lancashire Police. He was brought back to his home country on August 7.
Mrs Chadwick said that she was very upset when she heard the news that he had died.
“Even though we are very proud of his strong bravery and determination, his death has been very sad,” she said.
His family said that he was loved a lot.
There are no words to explain how sad it is to lose someone who lived for a short time.
‘A person who was loved very much by their family, including their parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts/uncles, and nieces/nephews. ‘
She said that he had always wanted to be a soldier from a young age.
A spokesperson from the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office said that they are helping the family of a British man who died in Ukraine. They are also talking to the local authorities there.
Another person named Sam Newey, from Britain, died in Ukraine last month. Now, there is news that Mr. Chadwick has also passed away.
The 22-year-old student from Birmingham University, who had no previous military experience, decided to join the frontline after Vladimir Putin started an invasion in February last year.
Mr Newey was a part of a group of fearless volunteers from different countries called the Dark Angels. He participated in many fights while serving in a country that was heavily damaged by war.
