He was only 26. But he already had a ‘Suvorov Medal’ and a ‘Participant in the manoeuvres of troops Vostok – 2018’ on his left chest.
He had done military service in the Russian army, and then contract service in the 14th Special Forces Brigade of the Khabarovsk GRU.
The young special forces soldier is on the list of military men who have covered 8,500 kilometres in a unique combined crossing from Khabarovsk to Moscow.
His name was Aymir Miyagashev.
His name translates from Khakassian as ‘moon shooter’.
His name was shouted when he covered a grenade with his body while saving fellow soldiers.
And the name of this hero will be remembered by Khakasia and Russia forever
