Двадцять чотири роки – життя героя обірвалося під час виконання небезпечного завдання.

As a result of combat actions, two true heroes lost their lives - Captain Ivan Bolotov and the commander of the assault group Konstantin Zhuk.

The 831st Tactical Aviation Brigade reported that Captain Bolotov died while carrying out an important mission. He was known as the best warrior among the Ukrainian Air Force. During the long course of the war, at just 24 years of age, Bolotov relentlessly fought the occupier both ideologically and physically. The brigade expressed condolences to the family of the fallen and emphasized that his courage and desire for victory will always serve as an example for others.

Furthermore, the fallen commander of the group, Konstantin Zhuk, was a true professional in his field. He was the founder of the Kyiv Plast and an active participant in the military unit 'Brotherhood'. During Russia's aggression, Zhuk joined the fight and received orders from foreign volunteers. He died in the Kharkiv region while defending his brothers-in-arms. It is worth noting that Zhuk was also an active participant in the 'Plast' movement and the association of motorcyclists in Ukraine.
