New structures have been unveiled in Dnipro to honor the fallen soldiers in the Heroes' Sphere (PHOTOS, VIDEO).

In Dnipro, the "Stories of Heroes" project has been updated in the Heroes' Square, reports the correspondent from "Vydimo".

This project is refreshed monthly with new stories of soldiers who sacrificed their lives for Ukraine's independence. In the square, 15 triangular structures have been installed, showcasing the stories of 45 Heroes. Each banner features a QR code that links to the website memory.dp.ua, where visitors can learn more about the lives of these military personnel, their journeys, the circumstances of their deaths, as well as their birth and death dates. Additionally, family members can contribute to this information.

"This is the fifth series of updates that appear monthly. After being displayed, these banners are handed over to the relatives of the fallen. We have also started setting up similar structures in various districts of the city. Currently, there are already 12 structures in the Novokodak district. The stories of those from this area are specifically placed here. In the future, we plan to create such structures in every district of the city. Once the exhibition in the Heroes' Square is completed, the structures will be transferred to the respective districts," said acting director of the Department of Youth Policy and National Patriotic Education of the Dnipro City Council, Sergey Ludenko.0

"They are Heroes and will always be Heroes for us. There are comrades from my battalion here, and there is a brother whom I didn't even know, but he defended my city. He was already a Hero to me back then. When we were liberated, I was a civilian, and these heroes mattered to everyone – to both children and the elderly. I am a military man myself and participated in combat operations. But the most important thing is that we showcase these Heroes who gave their lives not just for their loved ones, but for each of us. They died for us so that we could live in our free country!" said Dmitry Stogniy, a soldier from the Separate Mechanized Brigade "Kholodnyi Yar".

1 The event was attended by the wife of the fallen soldier Roman Boyko, whose call sign was "Lyutyi". Roman died in March 2024, sacrificing his life for Ukraine's freedom. Elena, along with their two daughters, came to the memorial from Sumy region. Also present were Roman's comrades and friends to honor his memory.

"Today we gathered in the Heroes' Square to honor all Heroes, all brave warriors. We came from Sumy because my husband served in the 128th Brigade. When he returned to his brigade in October, he called me and said, 'Beloved, I am with family.' This was very important to him. He had been a soldier since 2014, and in 2018, he was mobilized and went to Israel. When the full-scale war began, he returned with the words: 'I can't be there when there is war in my country.' He died in March this year," shared Elena, the wife of the Hero.
