Death of the 'Sharp Caps' warrior

Anton Spitsin, co-founder and commander of the special forces group 'Sharp Caps' of the National Guard of Ukraine, was killed at the front. His brother, Oleksandr Spitsin, reported this.

Oleksandr Spitsin noted that the military sustained fatal injuries in battle.

«Today is the darkest and heaviest day of my life. Today my dear brother left me. The closest and dearest person to me. It is hard to write and remember Anton's life, but he lived as a hero and died as a hero... He was mortally wounded in battle and has forever gone to heaven... Rest in peace, brother», – Oleksandr Spitsin wrote.

The Special Operations Center of the National Guard 'Omega' reports that Anton Spitsin fought from the first days of the full-scale invasion. While performing a combat mission, the special forces soldier was wounded. Doctors fought for his life, but were unable to save him.

It is also noted that Anton Spitsin was born and raised in Kharkiv region. Before the full-scale invasion, he had his own construction business and was engaged in charitable activities—he taught English to orphaned children for free and renovated a children's psychiatric and neurological sanatorium at his own expense.

«We will remember Anton for his good deeds, loyalty to Ukraine, work for victory, and love of freedom. Rest in peace, brother. Glory to the fallen Ukrainian warriors! We will avenge you!», – states the Special Operations Center of the National Guard 'Omega'.
