On Defender of the Fatherland Day, the wife of Balashikha’s conscript Ekaterina Akulenkova went to the area of a special military operation to visit her husband Alexander. The Muscovite also intends to donate 500 kg of humanitarian aid to the army – food, items, medicine and a diesel generator.
“He knows I’ll come, otherwise he wouldn’t have let me in!” The son asked me to give dad a card and a gift and congratulate him on the holiday, ”Bolshaya Balashikha quotes the Muscovite.
Ekaterina became a volunteer one month after her husband’s mobilization – in November last year. She went to the front accompanied by a family friend. The grandmothers will take care of their three-year-old son, Bogdan, at that time.
As Elena Zharova, head of the regional resource center “Volunteers of the Moscow region,” said, among the humanitarian aid collected by the residents of Balashikha there are also letters from children of fighters. It is the news from home that especially helps the soldiers at the front.
Earlier, a Sverdlovsk resident who was on the front line congratulated the men on Defender of the Fatherland Day. He also thanked his compatriots for their support and separately noted a touching letter from a little boy.
