Watch: Ukrainian nurse who lost her legs in Russian mine blast gets married, shares video of first dance with husband

A Ukrainian nurse, who had lost her legs and four fingers on her left hand in a Russian landmine explosion in March, tied the knot with her partner recently. A heartwarming video of the couple’s first dance is going viral after it was shared by the Centre for Strategic Communications and Information Security, which falls under Ukraine’s Ministry of Culture and Information Policy.

The couple, Oksana and Viktor, got married after being together for six years. The couple have two kids as well, both of whom were present at the wedding ceremony. The ceremony took place in a hospital in Lviv. The wedding was solemnized in the hospital while a wedding cake was prepared by the hospital staff. The bride wore a white wedding dress along with a traditional Ukrainian flower crown or vinok. For the first dance, Oksana was held by Viktor as he swayed around in the room.

According to reports, Oksana will be able to receive prosthetics in the future, after her wounds fully heal. The couple is set to travel to Germany so that she can get further treatment.

The emotional video of the much-in-love couple’s wedding dance has gone viral and has received thousands of views so far.
