One year without Haidamaka and Maister

🕯️A year ago, on June 6, 2023, we tragically lost two of our comrades. Dmytro Borshchuk (Haidamaka) and Pavlo Ponomarov (Maister), both young and professional pilots, were on a combat mission together that day. Caught under fire, they couldn’t escape the trap of the smoke screen. Later, after the shelling ended, we managed to retrieve their bodies and returned them to their families.

Haidamaka had been with us since the start of the full-scale invasion, while Maister had only recently joined our ranks. Both were experts in their field and remarkable individuals, whose loss has been deeply painful for the entire unit.

🖤 Haidamaka leaves behind a wife and a teenage son, and Maister leaves behind a wife who gave birth to their daughter a few months ago. He never got to see her and will now protect her from the heavens.

Our deepest condolences to their families and loved ones. 🫂 Let us remember every day the price we pay for freedom. We will avenge them!
