Terrorist attack in Kyiv: Ihor Savchenko, musician with band "Druhe Sontse," has been killed

Ihor Savchenko, a musician with the band "Druhe Sontse," was killed in a terrorist attack in the Holosiivskyi district of Kyiv on April 18.

According to Censor.NET, this was reported by his friend Maryna Yurevych on her Facebook page.

"Ihor Savchenko was killed in the terrorist attack. My friend, my loyal brother-in-arms, a musician in our band ‘Druhe Sontse.’ I still can't believe it. That I'll never hear your voice again, Ihor, that when I call, there will only be silence," the post reads.

Yurevych noted that they had been friends and played in the band since 2010.

"We went through and experienced so much together. Raps, concerts, festivals, conversations, creative explorations, plans, get-togethers, birthdays, your unforgettable steaks—so many memories. How will we manage without you now?" the musician’s colleague added.

She also noted that Ihor was a true friend and a true rocker who never gave up and was always there, even when the whole world was against him.

"You were a pillar of strength for everyone. Young at heart, incredible. You loved this life so much. Your family, Taniusha, your daughter Anuta. And you lived, burned, and felt through music—you felt truly alive when you played. We often argued with you, but we were always a real team. You are a huge part of us, of me; I am proud to have met such a Friend. It is true luck; I am grateful to God for this. Fly to the heavens, my dear, since fate has decided so inexorably. You were exceptional; you were one of the best. This is a terrible and very painful loss. I embrace you and weep with you, Taniusha, Ania, and all of Ihor’s family and loved ones. You are forever in my heart, Ihorok," Yurevych added.
