Oleksandr Polishchuk
Oleksandr Polishchuk is a Ukrainian man whose life has been marked by immense suffering and resilience. After joining the Ukrainian Army in 2015 following Russia's invasion of eastern Ukraine, he faced significant personal losses, including the death of his first wife during the pandemic and a harrowing 100-day captivity as a prisoner of war during the 2022 invasion. Despite these challenges, Oleksandr found love again, remarried, and became a father. He works at a recycling center and has shown remarkable strength in coping with the constant threat of war. His life took a tragic turn when a missile struck his home while he was attempting to protect his young daughter.
