According to The Independent, the woman in the clip can be seen purportedly asking the soldiers, “Who are you?”, to which a soldier standing in the street replies, “We have exercises here. Please go this way.”

After asking if they are Russians, she said: “So what the f*** are you doing here?”

When the soldiers tried to pacify her, the enraged woman said, “You’re occupants, you’re fascists! What the f*** are you doing on our land with all these guns?”

“Take these seeds and put them in your pockets, so at least sunflowers will grow when you all lie down here,” she said.

Ever since the video became viral, the woman has received an outpouring of support from many netizens who are calling her ‘brave’.

“The coming days and nights in #Ukraine are likely going to be long and hard. But with spirit like this woman shows, #Putin may find he bit off way more than he can chew. #PocketSunflowers to grow sunflowers from their graves!” a Twitter user said.

“Am I the only one reading that over and over, and getting chills each time?” wrote Chris Taylor, another Twitter user.
