The Ukrainian military recently liberated the village of Verbovka, Kharkiv region. To distinguish the Armed Forces of Ukraine from the occupiers, the locals asked to pronounce the code word “palyanitsa”.
Locals identified the Armed Forces of Ukraine thanks to the Ukrainian language
Resident of the de-occupied Verbovka, Volodymyr told how the Ukrainian military was met in the village, channel 24 writes. According to him, the locals did not hope that the occupiers could be driven away so quickly, since there was talk of an attack on Kherson.
But in the morning Vladimir's wife woke up and heard a shootout. “We hear some kind of noise, some healthy cars are driving,” said a resident of Verbovka.
Vladimir's wife heard a military man say, “where is my green bag with a compass.” After that, the woman stressed that the military spoke Ukrainian. “It says ours!” the man recalls.
I tell him (to the military man – channel 24) tell him, you bastard. Him: a brat. Glory to Ukraine! Turn around, show me the chevron. He shows, well, then they started hugging, – Vladimir said.
