Ivan, a novice monk, was inspired by the experiences of wounded fighters to leave the safety of his monastery and join a volunteer paramilitary battalion in Ukraine's Donetsk region. Now training with his unit for potential combat, Ivan believes the Church stands behind his decision. (Produced by Askold Sirko, RFE/RL's Ukrainian Service)
