A British soldier has revealed he is returning to Ukraine just 50 days after he was freed from a Russian death sentence.

Aiden Aslin, 28, was captured by Russian forces in April while fighting in Mariupol and was due to face a firing squad after being sentenced to death.

But the Saudi Crown Prince and ex-Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich helped secure his release in September and he returned to the UK to be reunited with his family.

Now, Mr Aslin has revealed he is returning to Ukraine to act as a Youtube 'war correspondent'.

The solider says he will report on the ongoing conflict for his YouTube channel by spending time on the front-line. 

He also plans to tell the stories of Ukrainian soldiers and firemen as well as everyday folk and their battle for survival.
