"In this new episode, I take you to Dnipro, Ukraine, a city that isn't officially on the frontline, yet lives with the war inching closer every month. Despite ballistic attacks, drone swarms, rolling blackouts, and the constant hum of generators, life continues. People adapt. Communities rebuild. The resilience is real, and it's earned. Shaun Pinner BIO: Author, Public Speaker, and Recipient of Ukraine's "Order of Courage" for selfless acts in the defence of Ukrainian sovereignty."
"A proud husband and father born near Watford, England, I served for nine years in the British Army's Royal Anglian Regiment, including deployment with the UN in Bosnia during the early '90s. Trained in Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape (S.E.R.E.) as part of the 24 Airmobile Brigade, I continued my military journey by joining the Ukrainian Armed Forces in 2018 as the country rebuilt its military following the annexation of Crimea."
Dnipro, Ukraine, sits outside the official frontline yet feels the war inching closer each month. The city endures ballistic attacks, drone swarms, rolling blackouts, and a constant hum of generators while daily life continues. Residents adapt routines, repair and rebuild communities, and sustain resilience forged through hardship. Shaun Pinner served nine years in the British Army, later joined Ukrainian forces in 2018, and became a sniper instructor and Ukrainian Marines section commander. His book Live. Fight. Survive recounts frontline service, the battle for Mariupol, capture, torture, a death sentence by DPR forces, and release in a high-profile prisoner exchange.
