Alongside the military, many Kyiv police officers are courageously defending Ukraine at the frontline. They serve in the National Police's assault brigades, participating in the most intense combat operations, leading assaults, and holding defensive positions. Among them are tactical medics who save the lives of comrades under enemy fire, rescuing the wounded and providing first aid in the most extreme conditions.
An evacuation vehicle was transporting injured officers from the police assault unit caught in combat near Toretsk when it came under enemy fire and was damaged.
Under heavy fire, officer 'Sokil' managed to pull his comrades to the nearest wooded area and called for backup. After waiting for an armored vehicle, he safely extracted his friends from the danger zone and delivered them to a stabilization point – currently, four evacuees are receiving treatment in the hospital.
In recognition of his heroism and bravery, the leadership of the Kyiv police has nominated 'Sokil' for a state award. Amidst gunfire and chaos, combat medics continue to save their comrades, remaining an unyielding support on the front line.
