The mayor of Odessa extends greetings to the Air Force personnel on their special day. Today, we honor the heroes who safeguard our skies - the Air Force soldiers of Ukraine.

In this conflict, you have become a symbol of resilience, professionalism, and profound responsibility. You are the ones who defend our cities from enemy attacks and fight for our country on the front lines. Thanks to your efforts, Odessa continues to thrive despite ongoing threats.

Your skills, bravery, and self-sacrifice save lives every day. Each downed enemy drone or missile is not just a military achievement, but a life saved.

On behalf of Odessa - a deep bow and heartfelt gratitude. We will always stand by your side, ready to assist and support you in any way we can.

Wishing you strong health, spirit, and victory!

Glory to the Air Force! Glory to Ukraine!
