Ukrainian soldiers dismiss ceasefire talks as unrealistic while facing relentless Russian attacks. At a military hospital in eastern Ukraine, wounded troops arrive continuously, many hit by shrapnel from drones. "Murderers don’t agree so easily," says Maksym, a soldier. Medics, including foreign volunteers, remain skeptical, citing past failed truces. The 68th Jaeger Brigade trains for battle, doubting both Russian intentions and American commitments. "No one wants to hope," says Swedish medic Daniel. With Ukraine losing ground in Kursk and US military aid finally resuming, troops see little sign that peace is near. "You can’t trust Russia. Never," says another soldier.
