Yuriy Ihnat, the spokesman for the Ukrainian Air Force, has been transferred to another position, the press service of the Armed Forces of Ukraine's Air Force said on Telegram.
"Since the full-scale invasion, I have personally thanked this man only twice a year - on his birthday and professional holiday. For what? For a huge amount of work. And most importantly, the result of the fight against the enemy on the information front! Both in Ukraine and abroad... for which he received a well-deserved state award from the President of Ukraine. Today, I will thank Colonel Ihnat for the fifth time," said Air Force Commander Mykola Oleshchuk.
He thanked Ihnat for his productive work as the head of the public relations service of the Air Force Command.
"He will remain in the Air Force and will work in another area no less successfully. I have no doubt! Wherever I am, I am sure I will thank him again and again! Life goes on. The main thing is for everyone to remain human!" Oleshchuk wrote.
Yuriy Ihnat is a Ukrainian serviceman, colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and a participant in the Russian-Ukrainian war. In 2022, he was awarded the Order of Danylo Halytskyy for personal courage and selfless actions in the defence of state sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine.
