Ukrainians commemorate the participants of the war every day at 9 a.m., among whom was Vitaliy Nikiforov. He was a loving son, brother, husband, and father. Vitaliy served his country by protecting it from external threats. He died while performing a combat mission on July 15, 2023, near Bakhmut. The memory of him and all fallen soldiers is honored every day.
Vitaliy was born in Chernivtsi, dreamed of becoming a pilot, but chose a military career to defend his country. After returning to civilian life, he started a family, but the war forced him back to the front line. He spent the last days of his life defending the freedom and independence of Ukraine as part of the 107th Separate Brigade of the Territorial Defense Forces of Ukraine.
“Glavkom” joins in a moment of silence honoring the memory of all Ukrainians who gave their lives in the struggle for the freedom of the country. Eternal memory to Vitaliy and all the heroes who fell in this war.
