(IDEX Online) - A luxury jeweler in Ukraine that started making body armor after the Russian invasion is now sending wedding rings to frontline soldiers.Oberig's manufacturing base in Kharkiv - Ukraine's heavily-shelled second city - has so far contributed more than 6,000 items of body armor to the war effort.And now it's sending silver wedding rings - 148 and counting - to soldiers and their partners."The idea of helping the soldiers, who don't have time and opportunity to buy wedding rings, inspired us," Oberig founder Tetiana Kondratyuk (pictured) told Business Insider.She's received multiple requests from platoon commanders, and from soldiers who were surrounded by Russian troops at the Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol.
