Every morning at 9 o'clock, Ukrainians honor the memory of those who died in the Russo-Ukrainian war. Today we remember the story of a hero - Yevhen Pronin.
Yevhen Pronin, known as Leshyi, died on March 20, 2022, defending Kyiv region from the occupiers. Born in 1972 in Chernivtsi region, he was an open and honest person who always acted based on logic and justice. He worked in law enforcement.
'To protect his country, dad went to the front line, where he was appreciated for his ardor and willingness to help,' said his daughter Lydia Pronina.
After visiting the military recruitment office in February 2022, Yevhen joined the 10th Mountain Assault Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In the battle near Borodyanka, he gave his life for the freedom of Ukraine at the age of 47.
'Dad was always ready to help and support, his courage and generosity will always remain in our hearts,' wrote the daughter of Yevhen Pronin.
Yevhen Pronin was buried in Ridkivtsi, Chernivtsi region. He is survived by his wife, daughter, and son. We honor the memory of the hero and other defenders who gave their lives for Ukraine. Glory to Ukraine!
