THE ZMIIV COMMUNITY IS IN MOURNING… THE DEFENDER OF UKRAINE, VOLODYMIR TYSHCHUK, HAS DEPARTED TO ETERNITY
Another tragic news, another unspeakable pain of loss... The war took the life of another courageous Defender of Ukraine – soldier Volodymyr TYSHCHUK, born in 1972.
On November 9, 2026, the heart of a warrior who stood up to defend the Motherland, its freedom and independence, stopped beating.
Volodymyr was born on July 28, 1972 in Kharkiv. He grew up in a friendly and loving family, studied at Kharkiv School No. 124. After graduating from school, he began his career, working at various enterprises in his hometown.
Family and friends remember Volodymyr as an extremely kind, sincere, and cheerful person. He knew how to support in difficult times, was always ready to help, valued friendship, and above all, loved his family.
Volodymyr was a caring father of three children – two daughters and a son. His eldest daughter Kateryna also chose the path of serving Ukraine and is a serviceman in the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
With the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion, Volodymyr did not remain on the sidelines. At first, he was actively involved in volunteer activities, helping those in need. And in January 2024, he voluntarily joined the ranks of the defenders of Ukraine.
He served as an assistant grenade launcher gunner in the security department of the company security platoon of the Ivan Kozhedub Kharkiv National Air Force University.
A special bond connected the Defender with Zmiyev. His mother lives here, whom he often visited. It was in Zmiyev that Volodymyr will find his final resting place.
We express our sincere condolences to the Defender's mother, his children, all his relatives, friends, and brothers and sisters.
The bright memory of Volodymyr Tyshchuk, his kindness, courage, and devotion to Ukraine will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
Eternal memory and honor to the Defender of Ukraine!
Rest in peace, Warrior...
