In Mykolaiv, in honor of Aviation Day, those who defended the city from the Russian occupation army and still continue to repel the enemy's invasion will be honored.

This was reported by the Mykolaiv City Council.

This time, Mayor Oleksandr Senkevych presented first-class awards "For the Defense of Mykolaiv" to the soldiers of the 10th Naval Aviation Brigade named after the Hero of Ukraine Colonel Ihor Bedzai.

As the soldiers continue to defend our country from Russian aggression, all the awards will be handed over to each defender later.

The mayor thanked the soldiers for their service and expressed gratitude from all Mykolaiv residents, noting that he received a valuable gift from the brigade - their flag.

"I received a very important and valuable gift from the brigade - their flag. Thank you for your service from all Mykolaiv residents! Glory to Ukraine!" the mayor addressed our defenders.

Among them are the Order of Bohdan Khmelnytsky, III degree, the Order "For Courage," III degree, presidential medals "For Military Service to Ukraine," and others.

In addition, on the occasion of the foundation of the 188th Territorial Defense Battalion in Mykolaiv, veterans of the full-scale war, terrorist fighters, defenders of Ukraine and volunteers were awarded honorary awards and certificates.
