Soldier, blogger, and songwriter Hlib Babich was killed in action. This was reported, in particular, by the Odesa military administration spokesman Serhii Bratchuk, writes Radio Liberty.
"Hlib Babich died in battle. Poet, songwriter, soldier, blogger," he wrote.
Babich's brothers in arms and friends also commented on his death.
"Together with you, we wrote 'Pass Me The Weapons,' 'Strength and Weapons,' 'Enough Sad Songs,' 'Freedom is Like Love,' 'Molfar,' 'Those Who Hold The Sky Over Christmas.' We have one song left, which we were supposed to release just the other day – 'Don't leave.' I would never have thought that it would become our farewell in this life," singer Ivan Lenyo wrote on his Facebook page.
Hlib Babich was born in 1969 in Mykolaiv. He joined the Anti-Terrorist Operation in the Donbas after the start of the russian aggression in 2014. In 2019, Babich ran for the Verkhovna Rada from the "European Solidarity" party. In 2021, his collection of poems and songs was published.
