Today is a sad day for Ishimbay. We said goodbye to two of our fellow countrymen who died in Ukraine. One of them is Andrey Pestryaev. He twice had the opportunity to perform military duty in “hot spots”. First he fought in Chechnya and was awarded the Zhukov medal.

After being transferred to the reserve, he served in the internal affairs bodies. On September 26 he was mobilized to participate in the Special Military Operation. Died on November 4 while performing combat missions.
