Quote: "Two young girls. Complicated fates. Real work. Zaporizhzhia front. They were saving those wounded, learning, carrying heavy responsibilities and helping at the front line as hard as they could."

Details: Volkov said that Kara survived the occupation of Kherson Oblast, hostile filtration and abuse in Taganrog. Despite this, she returned to service to defend her homeland.

Laiza was among the first to join the military under the 18-24 contract. She mastered the operation of ground robotic systems. Volkov describes the deceased as "quiet, bright and strong".

Sisters-in-arms were buried on 16 February.

"This is not the end; fighting continues and evil will be punished. Honour and memory, my girls," Serhii Volkov wrote.
