Ukrainian body collector’s funeral held – BBC News

The funeral of Ukrainian body collector Denys Sosnenko has been held in northern Donbas, in Ukraine. 

The 21-year-old former Ukrainian national kickboxing champion volunteered last year to work as a body collector, bringing back bodies of abandoned corpses of soldiers, both Ukrainian and Russian.

Denys Sosnenko was killed by an anti-tank mine while helping to recover the remains of soldiers. 

"Because of your work so many soldiers, who died in places no one would ever have looked, have been reunited with their families,” said Alexey Yukov, the local head of Black Tulip, a charitable organisation where Sosnenko volunteered.
