Vadym Filashkin honored border guards who, every day, defend Donetsk Oblast from the Russian enemy with weapons in hand.
For courage, resilience, and the selfless fulfillment of combat missions, the head of the region presented awards of the Chairman of the Donetsk Oblast Defense Council—the “Defender of Donetsk Oblast” badges, as well as “Badges of Honor.”
“These awards are a profound expression of gratitude from all residents of the region for your service—for every repelled assault, for the lives you have saved, and for giving us the ability to endure and keep working even in the most difficult conditions.
Donetsk Oblast stands because it is defended by strong, professional, and Ukraine-dedicated warriors.
My deepest respect to every defender,” Vadym Filashkin emphasized.
