    1. Lysychka- on

      Enver Kadyrov – a reconnaissance gunner of the 48th Separate Assault Battalion named after Noman Çelebicihan. He left his native Crimea in 2014 because of the Russian occupation.

      He found refuge in a town in the Kherson region, but after the start of the full-scale invasion, that part was occupied as well. His family lived under occupation in the Kherson region for a month and a half. Together with other residents, Enver organized makeshift patrols.

      “Many people had left, houses were without owners, so we patrolled to prevent looting. We did this until the enemy began to control the situation more actively. They came and said that those who patrolled had to wear white armbands so they could distinguish us,” says Enver Kadyrov.

      After evacuating from Hola Prystan, the man went to defend Ukraine, serving on the Kherson and Donetsk fronts. After being wounded, undergoing leg amputation, and prosthetics, he is now in rehabilitation in Lviv.

      “My comrades joke that I’m the Ukrainian Kadyrov. Well, I’m a Crimean Tatar, and he’s a Chechen. But I have my own personal enemy – the Russian Federation, Russia, tsarism, all of which have been destroying us.”

      In the summer of 2024, the soldier was wounded by an anti-personnel mine in the Donetsk direction while trying to evacuate the body of a fallen comrade with whom he had endured occupation and served in the army.

      “We had promised each other to cover each other’s backs. But it happened that he went on a mission earlier and was hit by an FPV drone. He stayed on the radio for a long time, and I heard him dying. When the battalion commander called me and said we had to recover his body, I didn’t hesitate. I stepped on a mine. Serhii was left behind…I received the order to leave him, and they evacuated me instead.”

      Then came treatment, prosthetics, and rehabilitation. Enver is now at the Halychyna Center for Comprehensive Rehabilitation of People with Disabilities. There, he began art therapy and started painting.

      “You paint what you feel, and gradually it changes somehow. At first, the paintings were darker, gloomier. I’ve done 19 paintings now.”

      Enver is now preparing his exhibition at the Rehabilitation Center, and when he completes recovery, he will decide whether to return to the army.
