ANDREY "BALAGAN": THE RUSSIAN FELL DEFENDING UKRAINE

Today Kharkiv was decorated by another graffiti dedicated to the memory of the fallen soldier of the "Azov" regiment - Andrey "Balagan." The patriots of Kharkiv did it on occasion of the anniversary of his death.

We hope and we know the death of Andrey was not in vain! After all, it was a man whose moral qualities will be an example for our future generations. Brotherhood, honor, unity - namely these ideals he embodied in life. His path of life is inspiring.

Not many people know that Andrey "Balagan" came to us from Russia: this man left his home to stand up in defense of our land. He was one of those Russians who took up arms and gave their lives for Ukraine and the higher ideas. He was the one who did not betray his words.

As an example for us, we will remember the feat of our comrade and will cherish his memory! Glory To Heroes!

Andriy Biletsky on Balagan's sacrifice: "Balagan was our volunteer from Russia. He was Russian, the Russian patriot. He believed in what he was doing. I saw him in the last moments of life, and he didn't regret what happened. He was an excellent fighter, brave, disciplined, and worthy."
