VideoRettet Leben in der UkraineDeutschen Paul (23) trennt nur ein Flussbett von der Front 23.02.2026

On Sunday in Lviv, Ukraine, a 23-year-old German paramedic named Paul Nähter was approximately one hundred meters from a hotel when two improvised explosive devices hidden in trash cans detonated, an event Ukrainian officials described as a "terrorist attack." The explosions injured 25 people and killed a 23-year-old police officer. Nähter, who has been in Ukraine for three years assisting with life-saving efforts, immediately responded to the scene after hearing the blast and screams from his hotel balcony, risking his own safety to rescue a man. He described the chaotic aftermath, with police attending to injured colleagues and distressed civilians present. Nähter, who is stationed only a riverbed away from the front lines, remains committed to his mission of providing essential medical care, despite ongoing air raid alarms and daily dangers.
