The Minister of Youth and Sports, President of the NOC of Ukraine Vadym Gutzeit, mentioned the terrible figure
"They fought for victories in competitions, glorified Ukraine all over the world. Experienced and very young. Talented, courageous, brave. They gave their lives so that the Ukrainian anthem could be played and the Ukrainian flag could fly. At home, on Maidan Nezalezhnosti, at sports competitions. Three hundred Angels of Sport. Eternal glory to the Heroes," Gutzeit wrote on his Facebook page.
