It is about Ukrainian soldiers who went through the Afghan hell and wars during the USSR, took part in peacekeeping missions.
34 years ago on this day, Soviet troops began to withdraw from Afghanistan. Thousands of Ukrainians took part in this tragic war. They were wounded, lost limbs, did not return home.
“Thousands of Ukrainians courageously performed their duties in other wars and armed conflicts even before the independence of Ukraine. Ukrainian peacekeepers fought for peace in missions under the auspices of the UN, NATO and other international organizations. Eternal memory to everyone who did not return. Gratitude to all those who are currently protecting their native state from the invaders. Thank you for your experience and patriotism. Return home alive, healthy and victorious,” said the head of Lviv OVA Maksym Kozytskyi.
