A Scottish grandfather has travelled to Ukraine to help the country's armed forces fight the Russian invasion.
A video posted online shows Rab Grady, from Edinburgh, wearing a flak jacket and camouflage fatigues and holding an assault rifle.
Flanked by two Ukrainian fighters, the builder said: "My name is Rob. I'm a 61-year-old grandfather from Scotland."
The BBC understands more than 100 people in Scotland have volunteered to fight in the conflict.
Britons have been urged to support the Ukraine from the UK, rather than travelling to join war, by the head of the armed forces, Adm Sir Tony Radakin.
Mr Grady's message continued: "I've travelled to Ukraine to help Ukraine fight the Russians. I'll do anything I can in my power to save Ukraine from Putin.
