The head of Donetsk Oblast honored our defenders with awards and distinctions for their courage, professionalism, resilience, and dedication to Ukraine.
Our independence rests on the people who defend the country today with weapons in hand. Through their sweat and blood, Ukraine is fighting for its right to independently shape its own future.
"I thank every warrior for their service, strength, and loyalty to Ukraine. It is precisely because of you that our state remains free and the Ukrainian flag flies over our cities.
It is an honor to be by your side on this day.
Glory to Ukraine!" emphasized Vadym Filashkin.
