A top Ukranian pop-rock band who downed their instruments to fight on the front line have filmed from reclaimed Irpin.

The city was taken back from Russian control several days ago, after four weeks of intense fighting.

Band Antytila joined fellow Ukrainians in the fight to defend their country, arriving in Irpin to take up arms.

They made headlines in Britain after asking to play alongside Ed Sheeran in a concert for Ukraine.

Now, the group has released a video titled 'One day of war' - showing life in the war-torn country

Kitted out in military uniform, they can be seen distributing gas masks and suits to protect Ukrainians from chemical warfare as they travel across Kyiv and into Irpin.

Destroyed buildings and bridges, discarded cars and belongings and rubble line the streets with explosions heard in the background of the video clip.

Band frontman Taras Topolia, who filmed the video, can be heard saying: "You should know we have no choice but to defend our country and we will do this until we will get the victory.

"We will capture this city, and we will get back all Ukrainian cities and we will get victory in this world. We believe in this, we know this."
