In the video, which has gone viral, Ukrainian soldiers are seen frisking some civilians at a military checkpoint after stopping their car.

One of the soldiers, having a ring in his hand, can be seen going down on one knee.

He is also seen hiding flowers behind his back.

He nudges the woman from behind and as soon as she turns around, he proposes to her.
