Today, our country honors those who took part in hostilities in the territory of other states. In recent decades, the Ukrainian military has always shown bravery and courage in resolving conflicts around the world.

One of the largest military operations since World War II has been the war in Afghanistan, which has affected tens of thousands of Ukrainians. Unfortunately, not everyone was able to return home alive. The memory of them will forever remain in the hearts of relatives and friends.

At the same time, many of those who overcame this challenge then have to defend the borders of our state today. I am grateful to each participant in the hostilities for their strong spirit and readiness to defend Ukraine at any time!
