Details: Tindal-Draper is reported to have been killed on 5 November while defending an observation post, though no further details about the circumstances of his death have been disclosed.
Prior to joining the resistance to Russian aggression in Ukraine, Tindal-Draper graduated from a military college and worked for the UK’s National Health Service.
Tindal-Draper’s mother shared that his platoon described him as a “hero” and “as brave as they come”.
“22 is a young age. But you lived and died following your heart, soul and morals. May you rest in peace and help watch over those who have passed,” she added.
The UK Foreign Office stated that it was ready to provide the family of the deceased with the necessary assistance.
Background: About 10 UK citizens are known to have been killed in action since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
