A mural in honor of the fallen soldier Oleg Khristenko was opened in Lviv.

The mural is placed on the house where the fighter lived. On it are two portraits of Oleg and what reflects his life and values. In particular, a weapon, a car, a chevron of the 3rd OShBr, the emblem of the "Angels of Azov" patronage service, a nationalist's prayer.

There are also three QR codes. After reading one of them, you can learn the story of the warrior, the second - see the mural in augmented reality and hear the nationalist's prayer, the third - go to the "Angels of Azov" website and support their activities.

Oleg Khristenko is from Lviv, worked in the IT field. During the full-scale invasion, he joined the "Azov" SSO regiment, which later became the 3rd separate assault brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Worked as a sniper. He had the call sign Krylov. The warrior died on June 7, 2023 near Bakhmut. The defender was 21 years old.

In the memory of friends and relatives, Oleg is brave, sincere, cheerful.
