Oleksandr KOVTUN
Ivan was born in the village of Krasne in the Kherson region. Before the full-scale invasion, he worked on the railway as a foreman responsible for the current repair and maintenance of tracks and artificial structures on the Voznesensk railway section.
53-year-old senior shooter Ivan Ivanov was killed on March 26, 2023, while carrying out a combat mission near the village of Vodiane in the Donetsk region.
Ivan was a participant in the Anti-Terrorist Operation in the east of the country, and on February 25, 2022, he did not hesitate to take up arms again to defend Ukraine. Colleagues remember him as a calm and reliable person: “If he took on a task, he saw it through to the end.” They felt that they “lost a part of themselves” when he was gone.
The warrior is survived by his wife and two children.
The team of the Voznesensk railway section of JSC "Ukrzaliznytsia" expresses deep respect for Ivan Ivanov. Glory to the Hero!
