Yurii Sinkevych, 1984.
On August 16, 2024, during hostilities in the Lyman region, the patient sustained a mine-explosive injury resulting in:
- Severe cranio-facial trauma;
- Cerebral contusion;
- Gunshot wound to the left cheek and left facial-orbital complex with soft tissue defect;
- Multifragmentary fracture of the left facial-orbital complex, lateral wall of the left maxillary sinus, and nasal bones;
- Severe contusion of the left eye, rupture of the sclera along the posterior pole, total hyphema, and hemophthalmus of the left eye;
- Hemosinus.
Doctors attempted to save Yuri’s eye, but unfortunately, they were unsuccessful.
Yuriy is a native of Lviv Oblast. Before the full-scale invasion, he worked as a senior cutter at a cardboard factory in Lviv. He has a wife, a 15-year-old son, and a large friendly family with whom, before the war, they liked to gather every Sunday and on holidays.
He was drafted into the army in May 2023. By August, he was already performing combat missions as a sapper in the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The man is convinced that it is his duty to finish the job so that the children do not have to fight the same enemy.
