American Daniel Swift, a former Navy SEAL who deserted in 2019, was killed while fighting in Ukraine on Jan. 18, according to U.S. officials. "The Navy can confirm that a former Sailor, Daniel W. Swift, was killed in Ukraine on Jan. 18, 2023," the Navy said in a statement. But that has not prevented some Americans to make the transit to Ukraine to join units of international fighters fighting alongside Ukrainian troops. According to the Associated Press, Swift is the sixth American to have died in Ukraine while fighting with Ukrainian military forces.
