mortal. the decree was signed by vladimir putin. this is a reward for courage and courage shown in the performance of professional duty. boris was mortally wounded as a result of a ukrainian drone strike in the zaporozhye region. he had long wanted to get involved in documentary filmmaking, and just this month he moved to the special reporting department, and from his business trip he was going to bring back a lot of thoughtful material about people in the war zone . ordered otherwise, this is a special report about him, a friend, colleague, teacher and professional, here now we see a crater from the hits, well, literally, that’s what time we are at 13:25.

borya is walking across the field, we are sitting in a trench, waiting for us to go back, borya’s words , borya shows his class, well, apparently, just those same trenches, yegor grigoriev endlessly reviews the latest messages from his friend, as if borya will now answer, it’s all a mistake , we probably all continue to hope for this, despite the news. moreover, he said there that you need to be more careful when going to his stand-up, because there the sky is open, and seemingly endless fields around, of course, you want to quickly get to some kind of shelter, it’s already quite cold in zaporozhye, sub-zero temperatures, so it also makes adjustments to the battle tactics now, it’s almost impossible to hide here,

it’s almost impossible anywhere, everything is clearly visible, it’s shot at, especially from the sky, we are lucky that the sky is now covered with clouds, but no one guarantees , of course, that drones are flying here, then he stopped answering me, well, i thought it was work, apparently, and like a bolt from the blue, such a story, they hit him purposefully, that's it it’s clear to everyone, they didn’t have weapons , the drone’s camera sees everything, everything happened on the line of combat contact in the zaporozhye region, where boris maksudov was filming a report on the shelling of civilians by the ukrainian armed forces. and the history of the gathering is , of course, in general a reminder that, alas, each of those who are there is walking on the edge. storm was a man. for him

it was some kind of convenient position, including a reporter’s, above his work place there was still a poster with victor tsui, he could listen to rock, chanson, pop classics with use the same empathy to film warm , human reports about oil production, academic music, or life in the arctic circle. imagine there are 86 people in this orchestra. which means 86 musical instruments, a mistake by one is a failure for all, despite the fact that one half of the orchestra does not speak the language of the other half, and they have never performed together before. everyone knows well from the soviet shlyager that this north is in vain called the extreme, but it’s one thing to hear, quite another to feel it yourself, we are beyond the arctic circle, let's go, met him, met him for the first time, it was in the pool.

defense, when we were working in the kiev direction, directly near kiev, i joined the pool when borya was already there, and the first thing i probably noticed about him right away was his kind of spontaneity, and the fact that he could appear in body armor, in a helmet, in full equipment and i don’t know, with a lollipop in his hand, he was so direct about absolutely everything, boris maksudov went to the combat zone from the very beginning, he wasn’t looking for simple, easy topics that were convenient for him, he always went against his fear , against his pain, and that’s why so often he asked and wanted to go to the zone of a special military operation, it was a challenge for him, it was some kind of struggle for him, maybe even to be with himself, he believed that talking about the war hundreds of kilometers away was cowardice, and he enjoyed great respect among the fighters. when we last saw each other,

we smiled, we hugged, and we said, we are not saying goodbye, that’s what our friends usually say friend, it was one of us. blessed memory, thank you for the work done. and at the same time, he did not consider himself a military correspondent, he said that he was of little interest, and even frightened, quote, by all these guns, guns, tanks, airplanes and other killing toys. the most valuable thing in war, and at the same time devalued, are human lives. just recently, he released a special report, a special report from the line of combat contact, and it was a lot of material, well, journalists understand, in my opinion it was even there for more than 20 minutes. and he was very interesting to watch, it was not just very professionally made, it was not just very dynamically made, not just with the effect of presence, of course, it was always boris, yes, when he comes, here he is here now, and he was very well built

on personalities, on people, on history, here is a fighter, here is a commander , here is a mobilized one, here is someone who has been fighting for a long time, due to this, boris himself really liked this received material, in correspondence he warmly thanked the editing director. in principle, we have known boris for a long time, probably since then, how he came to our channel, as a director i did a lot of different materials for him, both large reports and smaller ones, what can i say, well, as a professional behind the scenes in the frame, he was good, he knew that he... does in the frame, he knew what he was doing behind the scenes, he knew how to reveal people well, their character and tell what was happening, and what he was talking about, well, in general it so happened that his last big special report hit the spot. to me, after the editing,

when he and i were already corresponding, when the material was ready, he asked me to blur it out, some... landmarks, when i wrote him your face here, he said, well, it’s unlikely that your face is a good landmark for guidance, literally 2 weeks later, we all received bad news, he wanted to be useful to people and that was all he was, this is not a man of war, and not a man about war, this is a man who found himself there trying to explain, answer questions for himself, why this is happening, he tried to understand both the other side, which has always been very surprising for many,

the place for evacuation is already in ukrainian public pages, photographed so that they know where to hit civilians, it also remains, the first time we had a conversation was when i was planning to go to uzbekistan, and boris advised me very well about what was possible visit... where you need to look at and maybe buy the best suzani, go to a small private theater, where i actually went and he spoke very tasty, very detailed and well about his homeland, we are simply in the carpet paradise of bukhara, and i am at my uzbek relatives visiting aunt in uzbek it’s correct to call amma, we’re learning the uzbek language, well, i can’t help but share such a comeback to childhood, these are the ditches, one of the symbols of my uzbek language, and he swam something, he loved to launch boats, navoi’s haresm , here, which is not a region, is the name of an oriental fairy tale, boris maksudov was born in uzbekistan, his mother is also a journalist, after a while the family moved to the krasnodar region, boris got a job at

the sochi newspaper, then at kuban television, in 2011 he made reports from the flooded krymsk, where more died hundreds of people, in the fourteenth he covered the olympics in sochi, as a tvc reporter was already filming crimea’s referendum to russia, then he moved to the russia-24 channel. we had a joint project with russia 24 on roads and, well, in addition to the fact that we drove through many cities, we , of course, really remembered borya for his maksudov stance, when he stands on his feet, clearly directly in front of the camera, so he broadcasts his entire confidence, such steadfastness. i have never seen such quality from anyone, he always found words of support if he saw a colleague on the screen, here i took a photo and sent it with the same compliment; on my blog i readily responded to all comments.

we have been working together since 2019, and he was the most light-hearted, positive person, and every time i said , bori, how can this be, there are people who always have the same problems, but there is you, who is not what creates problems. it solves those problems that may even appear accidentally. i got into my phone, started reading our correspondence, remembered how i told him some compliments, he said, stop it, that you you confuse me, but i just really thought and... that he is a great correspondent and he does his job well. this photo of boris from his social networks has now spread all over the media. it was filmed by cameraman dmitry vlasov during their joint business trip to yakutia. and boris and i went on an amazing expedition to neurening yakutia, we filmed the forces of siberia project there, and we met him there for the first time. and he’s a guy i really like to work with, you know why, because first of all he’s clear. he knows what he wants

purposeful, with a sense of humor, savvy in the topic, he never swam, he was in it, that is, there was no work just for pleasure, that is, you understood that you need to film this, film this, stand-up, let's go, smile, joke , we move on, even when the owner is not in the apartment , in this case, the owner is prohibited from approaching any stranger, closer than this door, after all, there is a polar bear, but i remember once we made a stop on the way to the next... location and uh, bolit and i talked about wives, uh, how we we travel there and so on, well, i told you freshly , we love to travel, boris showed me his phone, where there were videos with his wife olga, looking from the point of view of the operator, he filmed all this on his phone, of course, my eyes lit up, and i saw in these videos such a love of a husband for his wife, of course, that’s right. cool, i’m a television reporter, what does it mean to properly call for a ribbon, a reporter by

vocation, a teacher by profession, graduated from the relevant faculty of sochi state university, he began to teach journalism to others, how to get on television, two words, well, how he came, worked for several years to his detriment and that’s it, the former intensive course in military reporting, the voenkor school united correspondents from different... tv channels that operate in the donbass , kherson and zaporozhye regions. the first advice that any experienced military correspondent will give to his novice colleague is to ask yourself why you are going to a combat zone where normal people are fleeing. and from this semester it became permanent lecturer at the faculty of media at synergy university. we made a takate together.

the course, which was called fact-checking technology in the schedule, was essentially, well, a course in reporting, yes, what is reporting, what is it eaten, how to do it, in this sense, bor was an excellent teacher, because he really knows how to make reports, his he took students to his work , it was important for him to teach future journalists in practice, here we come, that is, we conditionally received an assignment there, let's go, friends, hello everyone, this is the faculty of media, right now we are in the vgtrk building, i remember boris as a person with a wonderful sense of humor, and as a sincere person, he said at one of the steam rooms that sincerity is one of the most important qualities not only of a journalist, but also of a person, there is no such thing as you must be there for 12 hours at work . all on duty, yes, you can come, plus or minus, you must always be ready to be called when we came to

this studio and boris introduced us, introduced us to his colleagues, he introduced me as a thorn in the group, a thorn, which are in every group, and the provocateur, then all the colleagues said that yes , we were like that too, that’s how we started, you, you, you get an assignment, depending on which department it concerns, you either go to a group of cities, either internationally or in the gpp, boris revealed himself as a talented teacher and told students that it was important to keep a level head and treat any news with a grain of salt. well, boris, unlike everyone else, was as honest as possible from the very beginning, he talked about the difficulties with which we will encounter, but at the same time he motivated everything and also talked about the advantages, he was a good and kind person. he asked us about our plans, i remember, in our last lesson he asked where

you see yourself in 5 years, in six, i said that i wanted to be a teacher instead of journalism, and he supported me, i remember with boris our second lesson, when we had homework to make a plot, i brought it, then they scolded me very much, the main point was that you should always not look at what the picture turned out, but if you have people in the frame, pay attention to them, how they behave in the plot, whether they are comfortable or not? documentaries that he never managed to make, and the gratitude of friends, colleagues, students, the heroes of his stories and television viewers, boris maksudov recently turned 38 years old, the picture that is now behind me will tell about the situation, in a sense, the whole of russia is restoring, for example, at this civilian site in donetsk, presumably, these are exactly the weapons that the americans promised,

number of armored vehicles and manpower of the enemy, but most importantly, zhulanov, already wounded, led 30 of his soldiers out of encirclement. the battle of june 5, uh, a very memorable battle, very difficult, especially that moment when there was an awareness that they were surrounded, there was an understanding that a decision had to be made, to get people out, to save the wounded, to save the survivors, to get them out, exactly for that , that he brought people out, carried out combat task, you brought people out of encirclement, i actually was worthy of the title of hero of russia, no matter how pretentious it may sound, but in the zone , a whole generation of heroes really showed themselves, people... of different destinies, personnel, military and simply mobilized, some of them now continue to carry out tasks on the front line, some are recovering from injuries, some are re-acclimating to civilian

life. early in the morning of june 5, 2023, the armed forces of ukraine began a powerful artillery shelling of the positions of the unit at that time still junior lieutenant zhulanov, and afterwards, yuri was informed via radio that a large enemy column was moving towards his company’s position. zhulanov himself was at one of the strongholds at that moment. on the approaches, battles broke out at all of my company’s strongholds, the battle was difficult, and the enemy was unable to penetrate the forehead. we held our positions and the enemy decided to wedge into our rear, bypassing the flanks, at a strong point

, concentrated, from the nearest strong points , the wounded and survivors, to take up a perimeter defense, when he concentrated everyone he could, a shooting battle did not break out. by that time zhullanov’s unit was practically surrounded and the company commander decided to break through and take out the wounded, maybe another hour after this battle, i made the decision to withdraw the people on our own , independently on foot, and while we were actually moving, how many kilometers, how long we walked, i don’t remember, because there were skirmishes and shootings. with infantry and drones on the move, while we were moving they were shooting down, and the artillery was working on us, and the tank was shooting, along

the road, straight asphalt, my armored group was already working on positions the enemy, at the enemy, hit equipment, shot at the infantry, practiced harvesting, reached out to them via radio, that’s all, and the first box, you can say, you can say on the move, they already added a move already on the move and loaded the wounded, sent the first batch, as they said above, in total, yuri zhulanov led 30 people out of encirclement; during a battle with two battalions of the ukrainian armed forces, his company was destroyed by several tanks, armored vehicles and pickup trucks, the enemy lost about 100 people, during 8 hours of heavy battle zhulanov was wounded twice, continued command, command your unit already... having been wounded, it turns out, he was wounded in a shooting battle, uh, when he went to check the trail, uh, in a forest clearing, he moved

there alone, uh, on the way, already moving along the trail, i heard the enemy talking, how they talked to each other, and actually started a fight with them, small arms, namely, grenades were used mainly, shotguns, like i had with me. it was there that he received his first bullet wound in the leg, during the evacuation by vehicle, he received shrapnel wound also in the left leg. immediately after the battle, yuri zhulanov was evacuated to the hospital, operated on, and at night the supreme commander-in-chief called him to inquire about his well-being. a few days later, already in moscow at the vishnevsky hospital, the president awarded zhullanov the star of the hero of russia. then yuri found out that... and now he is a senior lieutenant. congratulations, i serve russia, when we found out, it was a shock, in general, of course, we did not expect that this was a hero

of russia. the main thing is that we found out that he was alive, because before that he disappeared again, lost, and that is, we didn’t know that there was such a difficult, terrible battle there, that such events were happening there, then there was a sharp call from him, from journalists, and they said that here he was, he had a title, and a hero russia, of course, it was a shock, well, terrible pride, of course, pride, well, they cried, immediately cried, cried, even the fact that it was just this awareness of that moment, the fact that he had experienced all this, and the fact that he had come alive, yura zhulanov grew up in a large family, he has two brothers and a sister, he studied everything from childhood sports, cross-country skiing, biathlon, weightlifting, he thought about connecting his life with the army as a schoolboy, after

his military service, from the first days svo understood that he would take part in hostilities, no thoughts of suddenly getting sick and going to the hospital, it wasn't even close. well, we all relate to the fact that it is necessary, yes, to serve, to defend the homeland, we don’t have such a thing that don’t go straight away, no, he went, he went, he fulfills his duty, he must fulfill it, because he is a man, if not them , then who, the svo zone in march 2020. on that at the moment he had just turned 23 years old and had no combat experience behind him, i remembered my first battle very well, i was in my bmp combat vehicle, in fact, i fired myself, from an automatic cannon, very heavy, the very first battle, precisely on

that moment was very difficult, and there was a lot of fuss, since the unit did not really have combat experience as such, it was precisely at that moment when the whole, so to speak, picture of this unpleasant one saw and felt, and above all, i realized that one should not give in to panic, under no circumstances and treat it more calmly, so to speak, yuri zhulanov received his first injury at the end of april last year, and recovered fairly quickly. and returned to the troops, later receiving his first officer rank, becoming a junior lieutenant and acting company commander. yuri fought in a variety of directions, izyum, kherson, zaporizhzhya and ugledar, already being a company commander, he went to combat excursions of the zhulans with his soldiers, driven primarily by, uh, i don’t even know what to call it, fighting spirit, one might say , and... mm, fear for

their guys, that, be that as it may, it doesn’t matter, with my guys, no matter where they are, no matter what age they are, i’m their commander, i ’m responsible for them, and i once, when i was with them on a mission , i felt that, well , if something happens, i will help somewhere and give advice. 2 months ago a very important event happened in the life of yura zhulanov - a wedding. he and his wife marina have known each other since school. we were friends at that time, we talked for quite a long time, and later i left and was drafted into the army, and well, as if throughout all the years we communicated, the first love, after so much time, we finally decided... that

after all, well, fate brings us together, well, for a reason, now yuri continues to recover from his injury, all these months senior lieutenant dzhulanov has not lost and is not losing communication with your unit.
