Yarovyi's older brother Dmytro, who also serves in the AFU, said that Ivan was an experienced helicopter pilot and had a lot of combat sorties.
"Unfortunately, they take the best. For me, he is a younger brother. It doesn't matter how old he was: 5, 10, 20. He is my little one. Unfortunately, now he's forever 23," Dmytro said.

A twin of the warrior Denys said that it was with him that Yarovyi first flew on a mission.
"A very handsome guy, brave and intelligent. It was an honor to serve with him. He was a specialist, very brave. This is a heavy loss for both the 18th Brigade and Ukraine," the serviceman said.
