Second Lieutenant Igor Khokhlov and Lieutenant Alexander Solovyov
We continue to present the heroes of special operation “Z”, participants in military operations in the zone of special military operation. Soldiers, sergeants, corporals and officers who demonstrated their professional experience, character and completed combat missions. The Russian Defense Ministry praises his determination, assertiveness and combat experience. Our heroes thwarted attacks and prevented nationalist counteroffensives, for which they received state awards. But they are not useful for praising. The military is confident that the enemy has no chance of success, because Donbass and Russia are fighting for a just cause.

“Where there are fewer troops, there are braver ones,” said Generalissimo Alexander Suvorov, who did not lose a single battle. And he taught the soldiers: “Where there is anxiety, there is a way, where there is hurray, it is time to go, the head does not wait for the tail!”
PROVIDED THE COMPANY WITH AMMUNITION TO THE INJURED
Ensign Igor Khokhlov
“The sergeant major of the motorized rifle company, Warrant Officer Igor Khokhlov, carried out a combat mission to deliver material to units carrying out missions in the line of direct contact with the enemy.
Carefully choosing the route and taking advantage of the darkness of the day, he secretly transported the property to a closed position of the Russian troops and organized the prompt unloading and camouflage.
The enemy discovered the transport and began firing with mortars. Warrant Officer Khokhlov was wounded by a nearby explosion, but continued to supervise the unloading and later, despite his wounds, first aid was provided to himself and several servicemen. After the unloading was completed, he organized the evacuation of the wounded and quickly removed the transport from the fire.
Thanks to the stamina and personal courage of non-commissioned officer Igor Khokhlov, the task of delivering the material was completed accurately and on time, heavy casualties among personnel were avoided and the lives of wounded Russian servicemen were saved.”
FOR DAYS FIGHTED AGAINST ATTACKS BY UKRAINIAN MILITARY POWERS
Lieutenant Alexander Soloviev
“The assault group of Russian troops, which included Lieutenant Alexander Solovyov, carried out a task in one of the tactical directions to capture an important stronghold of Ukrainian militants.
During the battle, advancing and destroying enemy firing points, the infantry fighting vehicle in which the Russian attack aircraft operated was damaged by the hit of an FPV drone. The group commander was injured. Lieutenant Soloviev took command and organized the evacuation of the wounded. After ensuring that part of the assault group was evacuating the wounded, Alexander organized a defense at the captured enemy fortress.
For 24 hours, repelling the attacks of Ukrainian militants and constantly inflicting significant losses on them, the group under the leadership of Lieutenant Alexander Solovyov held its position, which made it possible to bring reserves into battle and push back the enemy.
Thanks to the courage and dedication of Lieutenant Alexander Solovyov, an important enemy stronghold was taken, the lives of wounded servicemen were saved, and conditions were created for the further advance of Russian troops.”
