British soldier, 22, killed fighting in Ukraine as family pays heart-breaking tribute


The family of British man Callum Tindal-Draper has paid tribute after he was killed fighting in Ukraine on November 5.

The 22-year-old from Cornwall was fighting with the 4th International Legion, defending an observation post that came under Russian fire when he was killed.

His father, Steven Draper, said the family were proud of their “brave” son after he went to fight for Ukraine in June.

Mr Draper said: “We begged and begged and begged him not to go.

“But Callum said ‘dad, I’m not frightened of bullies and what’s going on in Ukraine is awful and someone needs to stand up for these people’.”
