The department reports this in its Telegram.

“On behalf of the chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia, Alexander Ivanovich Bastrykin, the departmental medal “Valor and Courage” was awarded to ... a resident of the Bryansk region, Fedor, who showed heroism and selflessness during the incident in the Klimovsky district of the Bryansk region,” the statement says.

As noted in the department, during the attack by Ukrainian terrorists, Fedor did not leave the younger girls and helped them get out of the car through the back door, and then ordered them to run into the forest.

Armed men at that moment opened fire on unarmed children.

“Fyodor was wounded in the chest, but even in this situation he did not lose his head and managed to lead the girls through the forest, catch a passing car and get to a safe place.

The courage and determination of Fedor saved the lives of children in danger, ”the UK said.

Earlier, the mother of a girl who was saved on March 2 by 11-year-old Fedya during a terrorist attack in the Bryansk region committed by Ukrainian militants thanked the boy for saving her daughter.
