“Everyone who captures the occupiers at the front speeds up freedom for Ukrainians,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Dear Ukrainians!
A rescue operation is underway in Pokrovsk, Donetsk Oblast. After Russian missile strikes. Iskander missiles against ordinary residential buildings. All our services are working on the scene.
Unfortunately, there are victims. There are wounded, there are casualties. My condolences to the families and friends… Unfortunately, the second missile strike resulted in the death of an employee of the State Emergency Service. Colonel Andriy Omelchenko, Deputy Head of the State Emergency Service Main Department in Donetsk Oblast. May he always be remembered…
I would like to recognize the rescuers today. Our employees of the State Emergency Service. Those who work in different cities of Ukraine for the sake of life. To make the Russian terror lose, because lives are saved.
Employees of the State Emergency Service of Kherson Oblast: civil protection service Sergeant Vitaliy Murzenko and civil protection service Lieutenant Volodymyr Yavtushenko. Employees of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine of Kharkiv Oblast: civil protection service Master Sergeant Serhiy Hladkyi and civil protection service Colonel Andriy Solianikov. Employees of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast: civil protection service Sergeant Kostiantyn Poturaiko and civil protection service Captain Vitaliy Denysenko.
All of them have repeatedly participated – directly participated – in eliminating the consequences of terrorist attacks, in saving the lives of our people. And, of course, all the employees of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine in Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts, Zaporizhzhia and Odesa oblasts. I thank the entire staff of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine!
