Ukraine, Dnipro, 2026-01-28. Portraits of wounded soldiers from the 25th Separate Airborne Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces photographed inside military hospitals in Dnipro, eastern Ukraine. The servicemen were injured during combat operations on the eastern front amid ongoing fighting against Russian forces. Some soldiers are pictured lying in hospital beds with visible amputations, bandaged limbs and surgical scars, while others sit upright during recovery sessions. Medical staff move through corridors and treatment rooms as rehabilitation continues. Dnipro has become a key medical hub since the beginning of the full scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, receiving casualties evacuated from front line positions in Donetsk and surrounding regions. The portraits document the physical consequences of high intensity warfare and the human cost of artillery shelling, drone strikes and trench combat.

Ukraine - The rear front of the Ukrainian - FH-024.jpg

Ukraine, Dnipro, 2026-01-28. Portraits of wounded soldiers from the 25th Separate Airborne Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces photographed inside military hospitals in Dnipro, eastern Ukraine. The servicemen were injured during combat operations on the eastern front amid ongoing fighting against Russian forces. Some soldiers are pictured lying in hospital beds with visible amputations, bandaged limbs and surgical scars, while others sit upright during recovery sessions. Medical staff move through corridors and treatment rooms as rehabilitation continues. Dnipro has become a key medical hub since the beginning of the full scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, receiving casualties evacuated from front line positions in Donetsk and surrounding regions. The portraits document the physical consequences of high intensity warfare and the human cost of artillery shelling, drone strikes and trench combat. Despite severe injuries, several soldiers maintain direct eye contact with the camera, reflecting resilience and determination during recovery. The series highlights the impact of prolonged conflict on Ukrainian servicemen and the strain placed on the national medical system as the war enters its third year.

Synopsis :

Ce reportage documente l’arrière-front ukrainien, alors que le pays entre dans sa cinquième année de guerre depuis l’invasion russe de février 2022.

À Kharkiv, des familles manifestent pour réclamer la libération de leurs proches faits prisonniers. À Dnipro, des aumôniers militaires visitent soldats et blessés dans les hôpitaux. À Pavlohrad, les entraînements se déroulent sur des terrains dissimulés, tandis que les funérailles d’un jeune militaire rappellent la réalité des pertes.

Sur les routes protégées par des filets anti-drones ou bordées de carcasses de véhicules détruits, la proximité du front demeure tangible. Dans les centres pour déplacés, des familles attendent une aide après avoir fui les zones de combat.

Loin des affrontements directs, cet arrière-front révèle une société durablement marquée par l’attente, la perte et l’adaptation permanente à la guerre.
