A detailed video account, published by Ukrainian special forces, described how the soldier refused to lay down his food, while one of his compatriots tried to kill himself by running into a pillar.

They later asked to watch Korean romance films, the Ukrainians said.

“He was lying there, with his head and an arm wounded. He had a grenade, a knife and a sausage on him,” one of the soldiers of Ukraine’s 95th Air Assault Brigade said in an interview published on Tuesday.

“I asked him to drop everything, but he refused to drop the sausage because it was food, so we let him keep it.”

Iona Cleave is a former Sun 'journalist' so I'd take any articles written by her with a grain of salt.

And this is from the Telegraph, a right-wing newspaper. Unlike the Sun, though, it is an actual paper and not the kind of garbage you find stuck to the bottom of your shoe like the Sun.
