According to information, the 41-year-old invader had sports achievements in the field of weightlifting and held the title of 'master of sports'.

It is reminded that the Ukrainian defenders previously eliminated the occupier Vadym Yamvarshev, who played amateur football and was drafted into military unit 25594, which services the Strategic Nuclear Forces of Russia.

Details about Yamvarshev have also emerged. He was born on February 6, 1999, and played for 'Kuknur' team in the village of Kuknur, Republic of Mari El, which participated in amateur tournaments, including the championship of the Sernur district.

Yamvarshev was buried on January 20, 2025, but he had disappeared unknown when in the autumn of last year. Social media posted a message, presumably from the player's parents, requesting assistance in the search.

There is also some information about military unit 25594, where Yamvarshev served. This unit is known as the arsenal of the Russian Ministry of Defense, servicing the Strategic Nuclear Forces of the Russian Federation, and is located in Vologda-20.

Previously, Ukrainian defenders eliminated the occupier Oleksandr Rudy, who was known as a karate-do shotokan athlete. Information about the date and circumstances of his death is currently unavailable, but a tournament dedicated to his memory was held.
