The family of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) Air Force Logistics Commander Colonel Andrii Ukrainets, who is suspected of corruption in the construction of aircraft shelters, has purchased real estate worth approximately $1 million in recent years.

This is stated in an investigation by Bihus.Info, Censor.NET reports.

Ukrainets’ modest declaration

Journalists note that in the colonel’s official asset declaration, only an old Moskvich and a Volkswagen Passat are listed. As for housing, he declared an apartment in the Zhytomyr region and several land plots there.

At the same time, during the full-scale war, the colonel’s family acquired assets worth more than $1 million.

The colonel's parents' assets

According to the journalists, a significant portion of the assets is registered to the colonel’s retired parents. In 2025, the official’s mother registered as an individual entrepreneur and almost immediately became the owner of apartments at the Bukovel ski resort, in the Mountain Residence complex. According to investigators, the purchase would have cost her approximately UAH 6.5 million.

The 72-year-old mother is also listed as the owner of a new house near Zhytomyr consisting of several buildings on a sizeable plot, as well as several apartments in Kyiv, including in the residential complexes Faina Town and Warsaw.

Before registering as an individual entrepreneur, the serviceman’s mother had never been engaged in business, Bihus.Info notes.

Son's assets

The 26-year-old son of Ukrainets, Illia, who recently graduated from a medical institution and currently works as a doctor, also holds numerous assets. Registered in his name are an apartment in the Warsaw residential complex in Kyiv, houses and land plots in the Zhytomyr region, as well as parking spaces in a new residential complex near Zhytomyr.

According to journalists’ estimates, the value of the family property acquired in recent years may reach around $1 million.
