    • Biography

      Eternal memory to the Warrior of Light! He impressed me with his sincerity, loyalty, and authenticity! Igor, with the call sign Ernest, gave his life for Ukraine. This happened during a battle in Shyrokyne. He was one of those fearless "Azov" fighters. Igor talked about how his values changed. An ultra who went to the front said that football no longer interested him… He claimed it was the past. Now the main thing is Ukraine, helping people. He remembered his mother… He constantly joked. He was all covered in dirt after the battle, and when we took a photo, he took off his helmet and started fixing his hair to look good. He had such a beautiful smile. He was 19… Sunshine, you will forever shine in Ukraine…
