A Scots garage owner fighting on the frontline in Ukraine will spend the festive period with his comrades in the trenches. Adam Ennis, 35, travelled from Biggar to the war-torn country in March after Vladimir Putin's horrific invasion.The Scotsman had a rare day off for Christmas, although he was unable to spend it with his family, before rejoining the troops.

Adam has been involved in two major fronts and is unlikely to return home until the war is over.He told BBC Scotland: "I have no plans to come back home anytime soon.

My heart is invested in this war effort like the brave boys around me.He added: "I will miss my family and friends over this period but I am lucky to have good people around me.

I will be thinking of all those not as fortunate."It doesn't feel like Christmas to be honest. Mentally we have switched back to game time."We owe it to each other, to our families who have had to deal with the heartbreak of our decision to be involved in this war, to finish this and free Ukraine once and for all."In a post on his Instagram account, he told his followers: "Few days off and back to work on boxing day!"First of all to all Ukranians, although we go through the toughest of times together, your unity, determination, positivity and will to be free inspires not only those like me that you have accepted as one of your own, but also the entire world.
