The commander of the first battalion of the Azov Regiment, Oleh Mudrak, has died — his nephew Danylo

Recalling his uncle, Danylo says he "burned with this life, enjoyed it and set the hearts of all the people around him on fire."

The exact cause of death of the soldier is not specified. However, some of Oleh Mudrak's comrades-in-arms say that his heart stopped. 

During the full-scale Russian invasion, he was defending Mariupol and Azovstal. In May, he was taken prisoner by Russia. He also managed to survive a terrorist attack in the Olenivka colony.
