Not all Ukrainian defenders of Izium who were killed in March 2022 were properly buried. Some of the bodies were taken from under the rubble only now after the city was regained by Ukraine’s forces from Russian occupiers during the recent offensive.
Today in Kyiv, Ukrainians bid farewell to one of the Izium defenders Roman Kosenko, who died from a Russian bomb dropped on the city on 9 March 2022. He will be buried in Kyiv.
