As reported on January 31 by the Coordination Headquarters for the Treatment of Prisoners of War, Zakhar fell into the hands of Russian terrorists along with his wife Tatyana after being evacuated from Azovstal in May 2022.
Six months later, the woman was exchanged and returned to Ukraine. Tatyana settled with her two daughters in the Dnieper.
However, on January 14, the Russians fired a missile at the high-rise building where the family lived. The defender died under the rubble along with the man’s youngest daughter and mother.
The eldest 19-year-old daughter Ruslana is waiting for her dad to return today.
In addition, the headquarters reported that doctors who, in superhuman conditions, saved their brothers and civilians at the Mariupol Metallurgical Plant and Azovstal are returning home.
The senior lieutenant, who has been defending Ukraine since 2014, returned to his native land, passed through Debaltsevo and was twice awarded the Order of Courage. Two siblings, Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers Anatoly and Pavel, were freed from captivity. Spas is also another defender of Zmeiny Island.
