Taras Topolya, the frontman of the band "Antitila", revealed in an interview that being on the front line was a significant challenge for him. He had to face great responsibility and longing for his family, especially his children and his beloved, who could not be hugged.
The singer spoke in detail about the most disturbing moments of his stay at the front. Separation from his wife Olena and children turned out to be a difficult test.
"My "difficult" looks like a kindergarten compared to other fighters who haven't seen their relatives for years. We had viber or skype, you could call and chat. It made the situation a little easier," the performer shared his impressions.
The artist also recalled an episode from the front that deeply impressed him. In one case, the body of a National Guardsman was brought to him, and Topolya had to unlock the deceased's phone in order to find his wife's contacts.
"I remember that situation because that day was my 35th birthday," added the surprised singer. "There was also a situation when it was not our team that carried out the evacuation. A soldier was brought in, and it looked like he had already died. His comrades simply took the doctor out and demanded that the defender be pumped. We understood that this man had already left on the shield," Taras said.
The frontman of "Antitil" emphasized that he will never forget the despair in the eyes of the relatives of the deceased. Even in a similar situation, he would act in the same way, even if he understood that it was no longer possible to save a person.
"There were many such situations, and all of them were difficult. But every other situation was also difficult. Everything was quite difficult," the musician concluded.
