A Ukrainian volunteer who helped shuttle civilians by boat to security from the flooded Kherson space determined to take a break to serve up a special form of aid: A musical one.
Armed solely together with his saxophone, Andriy Levishchenko clambered onto the roof of a flooded home to play his saxophone.
Surrounded by excessive water, Levishchenko performed the Ukrainian nationwide anthem as Russian shells fell close by.
After his rendition, which echoed over the floodwaters at the same time as shelling whizzed overhead, a girl passing by on a ship shouted her appreciation and “Glory to Ukraine,” and thanked Levishchenko for “the perfect musical efficiency” she’d ever heard.
