Roman is an engineer and a graduate of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute in Kyiv, who lives in Irpin (at the end of March 2022, the city was liberated from the russian military). The man produced about 400 metal detectors. These devices are used by Ukrainian sappers and the military. So, for example, bomb squads of the State Emergency Service have already worked with them in Kyiv, Chernihiv, Kharkiv and Kherson regions. Engineer’s group mates from university and Ukrainian activists helped with parts, as well as donations for metal detectors

Volodymyr Skovorodka, a rescuer from Kyiv, ran over 800 km from Kyiv to Warsaw to express gratitude to the Polish people and raise funds to demine water objects.
