In the photo is Denys Kozyr, who organized a memorial service yesterday in the village of Hroza for his father, Andriy.

The men went to fight in the early days of the war. Before the full-scale invasion, they were in Poland, but after Russia's attack, they returned home and went to the recruitment office. According to media reports, after three days of combat, the father received a fatal wound to the neck. He was buried in a military cemetery in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

In June, the son was discharged from service due to health conditions. He then returned to Hroza, got married, and decided to finally re-bury his father. About 60 people gathered for the memorial service — they were killed by a Russian missile. Denys, his wife, grandfather, grandmother, and his wife's mother all perished.
