Ukrainian filmmaker Oleg Sentsov has sustained shrapnel injuries while fighting in the Zaporizhzhia region in southeastern Ukraine.
The director, who spent more than five years in prison in Russia for opposing its annexation of his native Crimea in 2014, reported his injuries on his Facebook page, where he regularly posts updates about his life at the front.
He said his unit had come under artillery fire while out on its first sortie of the week. “Three injured, mostly fractures. Already pulled out of my face, the small things in my hand and foot will stay with me forever.
The other guys are fine too – Zaporizhzhia doctors know their stuff, thank you!,” he wrote. Sentsov, whose filmography spans Rhino (2021), Nomery (2020) and Gamer (2011), joined Ukraine’s voluntary Territorial Defense forces the day of Russia’s invasion on February 24, 2021.
