Ukrainian miner Vasyl Yavorsky donated his own wages to striking Welsh miners in 1984. Now Welsh miners loaded up on medicine and supplies driven from south Wales to Kyiv to repay the old favour.

“They did not forget about us, just like we didn’t in 1984,” said Vasyl.

Communities in Wales affected by the miners’ strike in the 1980s received much-needed support from the former Soviet Union, and from around the world.

It is a four-decades-old bond that bridges a strike and now a war, forged in shared experiences underground.

In Ukraine, there are currently hundreds, if not thousands, of miners fighting on the front lines in the war against Russia.
