Kharkiv theater employee killed in action

The theater's press service reported this on Facebook, according to Ukrinform.

Colleagues noted that Artem deeply loved the theater, was a truly creative personality, and always assisted with the artistic design of performances.

"The terrible war has taken a young, talented person who should have had many more years to create and enjoy life. But Artem made the choice to defend Ukraine, and he gave the most precious thing he had -- his life -- for all of us," the theater said.
