The head of Donetsk region honored those who hold the front line in defending Donetsk every day: artillerymen, infantrymen, riflemen, sappers, and UAV operators.
He presented service members with distinctions from the Head of the Donetsk Regional Defense Council — the “Defender of Donetsk Region” badge and the “Badge of Honor” of the Donetsk Regional State Administration.
“These awards are not only about merit, but also about the gratitude of the entire region for your courage, fortitude, and resilience. Behind each recipient lie hundreds of days and nights in danger, and hundreds of decisions that saved lives.
You are true Heroes who are fighting for our peaceful future.
Thank you, friends, for protecting the skies and the land of our native region.
Honor and respect to each of you!” emphasized Vadym Filashkin.
