As is known, on January 2nd, the Russians attacked Pokrovsk with KABs. As a result of the strike, the stele at the entrance to the city was damaged. The structure fell, and one of the letters rolled onto the road. Soldier Pavlo Vyshybaba picked up the letter "P" from the road. He stated that Ukrainians are paying too high a price for Pokrovsk to endure and not just remain on maps. Therefore, Vyshybaba says he will keep this letter and pass it on to a future war museum, so that future generations remember the feats of Ukrainian defenders.
