A Ukrainian man who embarked on a perilous journey with his months-old kitten fleeing his war-torn country was rescued in the Romanian mountains.
28 year-old Vladislav Duda from Ukraine poses with his cat Peach in Baia Mare, Romania, Monday, Dec. 9, 2024 after being rescued. A Ukrainian man who embarked on a perilous journey fleeing his war-torn country into Romania was rescued from a deep mountain ravine in subzero temperatures with an unlikely companion: his months-old kitten named Peach.
“It’s like a dream, after all I have been through, I only hoped to be found and to survive," Duda, who worked as a journalist in Ukraine, told the AP. “Peach kept my heart warm and he kept my faith alive." Duda left his home in Ukraine’s war-ravaged Kharkiv region more than a week before getting stranded with his feline companion in the arching Carpathian Mountain range, which straddles northern Romania and southwest Ukraine.
Desertion is also starving the Ukrainian army of desperately needed manpower at a crucial time in its war with Russia. The U.S. has also urged Ukraine to draft more troops, and allow for the conscription of those as young as 18.
