In Kharkiv region, a farewell will be held for a 47-year-old defender who lost his life in the war.

A defender from the Kharkiv region, Grigory Doroshenko, was killed in the war.

This was reported by the Telegram channel "LozovaNews," as conveyed by "Dumka."

It is noted that the 47-year-old man was born in the village of Petrovske (now the village of Ukrainian) in the Lozova district. He attended tractor driving courses where he received his qualification, and after his studies, he worked in a collective farm in his profession.

From 1995 to 1996, he served in the military in the city of Belgorod-Dnistrovskyi in the Odessa region, where he was a tank driver. After completing his service, he got married and worked as a tractor driver at the Oril HPP. He had two daughters and one son, and now he also has two grandsons.

Subsequently, starting in 2017, he worked as a tractor driver at the private enterprise "Lan." He was completely proficient in his chosen profession and handled any complex machinery: tractors, snowplows, loaders, etc. However, he loved fishing the most and never returned home without a catch. A soldier of the 3rd infantry section of the 2nd infantry platoon of the 1st infantry company of military unit A5039, Doroshenko was killed on December 6, 2024, while carrying out a combat mission near Bilohorivka in the Severodonetsk district of the Luhansk region.

"He was very generous. He had many friends. Friendliness was his main character trait. Recently, he lived with his mother, taking care of her and managing the household. He was mobilized in 2024. May the bright memory of him forever remain in the hearts of his family, friends, and loved ones, and may God grant him the heavenly kingdom and eternal peace," reads the message.
