Private Viktor Stalnoy was killed on October 25, 2024, near Mykolayevo-Daryino in the Kursk region of the Russian Federation. He sustained fatal injuries as a result of a guided aerial bomb strike. The warrior was 50 years old.
Viktor was originally from Kostiantynivka. He graduated from local School No. 3. He turned his passion into a profession, working in the manufacturing of wooden furniture. In his free time, he enjoyed spending time with family and friends.
After the full-scale invasion began, Viktor voluntarily joined the Armed Forces of Ukraine to protect his family from the occupiers. He served in the 61st Separate Mechanized Stepova Brigade and fought in Kherson Oblast, suffering several concussions during his service.
For his courage and dedication, he was awarded the "For Military Service to Ukraine" honor.
His daughter Viktoriia remembers her father as a sincere, kind, and bright person who gave everything to his family and dreamed of owning a home and living a peaceful life with his wife.
Viktor is survived by his wife, daughter, and son.
At 9:00 AM—the national minute of silence. The Donetsk Regional Military Administration and the Heroes Memorial Platform remember the fallen defenders from Donetsk Oblast.
