Details
The information about the loss in the large family of rescuers was also confirmed by the head of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine, Andriy Danyk.
During emergency rescue operations at one of the energy facilities in Kyiv, Oleksandr Pytaichuk, a rescuer-high-altitude worker of the Main Mobile Rescue Center of Rapid Response of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine, died. We lost a person who did not just perform his duty. He worked between chaos and the normal life of citizens, so that there was light and warmth in homes, and Kyiv residents had hope that everything would be fine
According to the head of the State Emergency Service, Oleksandr Pytaichuk was only 31 years old.
Brave. Courageous. Sincere. Purposeful. A person about whom friends, relatives, and colleagues speak only good and warm words. Currently, behind every light turned on in an apartment is the work of people like Oleksandr. Work in smoke, at height, in the air and underwater, under the threat of repeated attacks, at the limit of human capabilities
He emphasized that rescuers of the State Emergency Service continue to work in extremely difficult and dangerous conditions so that the country lives, even when risk is nearby every second. They go where the danger has not yet passed, to protect others.
This is a painful reminder of the price of service and the responsibility that rescuers bear every day. On behalf of the entire service, I express my sincere condolences to the family, loved ones, and comrades of the deceased
