🕯️ The Ivano-Frankivsk community is once again mourning the loss of a brave defender — Yevhen Pylyushchak, a native of the village of Birky, was killed in combat in eastern Ukraine. He was 34 years old.
Born on February 4, 1991, Yevhen completed his secondary education at School No. 41 in Lviv and later graduated from the Faculty of Electronics at Ivan Franko National University of Lviv. He worked in the private sector as an electrician and plumber.
His family remembers him as a kind-hearted, sincere, and compassionate man. He loved animals, had a passion for electronics, and was known for his calm demeanor and strong sense of responsibility.
In 2024, Yevhen voluntarily joined Ukraine’s defense forces to protect the country against the Russian invasion. He served in the United Assault Brigade of the National Police of Ukraine “Liut” under the Department of Special Police, fulfilling combat missions in the Donetsk region.
Yevhen’s life was tragically cut short on November 24, 2025. He is survived by his mother and grandmother, who are now facing this devastating loss.
The farewell ceremony for Yevhen Pylyushchak will take place tomorrow at the Garrison Church of Saints Peter and Paul (UGCC) in Lviv. The memorial service will begin at 11:00 AM. He will be laid to rest in Lviv.
Eternal memory and honor to the Defender of Ukraine. Heroes never die.
