The Russian occupational troops have returned the body of Dniproorudne Mayor Yevhen Matveev, who died after he spent 2 years in captivity suffering from torture. His remains were handed over to Ukraine during the latest prisoner exchange.
Matveev was captured in February 2022, shortly after Russian forces occupied Dniproorudne in the Zaporizhzhia region. Revealing the tragic news, Zaporizhzhia regional governor Ivan Fedorov paid tribute to Matveev’s patriotism and sacrifice.
“Yevhen Serhiyovych was a true patriot, deeply dedicated to his country and his community. He stayed in the city during the occupation, working tirelessly to ensure the community’s needs were met, keeping people informed, and offering support despite the dire circumstances,” wrote the governor on Telegram.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.
Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
