The father of a fallen Polish volunteer donated a vehicle to Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers
Mirosław Sztyber, the father of Polish volunteer Daniel Sztyber, who was killed in 2022 during combat operations in Ukraine, donated a vehicle to the Ukrainian military and continues the volunteer work he had previously started alongside his son.
According to Myroslav Shtyber, his son was already involved in volunteer work and escorted humanitarian convoys before joining the International Legion of Territorial Defense of Ukraine.
“My son traveled with humanitarian convoys. I organized the aid, and he escorted them. Over time, he began to get closer to the front lines,” he noted.
After his son’s death, the man did not stop helping Ukraine and continued their shared cause. He emphasized that he regularly delivered humanitarian aid to the Ukrainian military, including medical equipment and stretchers for evacuating the wounded. The final decision was to donate a car that holds special significance for the family, as it was purchased together with Daniel.
“My latest decision was to donate the car. We bought it together with Daniel, and he also used it. It’s important to me that this car continues to serve the Ukrainian military and help them in their work on the front lines,” added Myroslav Shtyber.
Daniel Sztiber was buried with military honors at the Stare Powązki Cemetery in Warsaw.
Separately, Myroslav Shtyber emphasized the importance of maintaining the partnership between Ukraine and Poland.
“I believe that we must cherish Ukrainian-Polish relations. Only together can we be strong. If we act separately, we grow weaker, while cooperation offers a chance for development and security for both nations,” he emphasized.

As a reminder, 23-year-old British citizen Ayrton Redfern was killed on May 9 in the Donetsk region while fighting on Ukraine’s side against Russian occupation forces. The Briton served in a special forces unit and took part in combat operations in eastern Ukraine.
As a reminder, a British volunteer hopes to obtain Ukrainian citizenship after being wounded on the front lines.
