Ex-British soldier imprisoned by Russia says he feels abandoned in occupied Ukraine

In letters written to the BBC from inside a detention facility, Davies says he was captured by Russian forces after being seriously injured on the front line. “My radio broke, my partner was killed and I couldn’t escape,” he writes, “I had to make a decision: lie there and die, or take action. I crawled 150 metres [500 feet] to reach an area I knew. It took a whole day.”
