Junior Sergeant R. D. Derzhavin with the call sign Angel evacuated a seriously wounded commander from the battlefield during an attack by Ukrainian FPV drones and walked 700 m through an open area with an officer on his shoulders. On November 24, the serviceman shared with Izvestia the details of the feat.

The incident occurred on November 11 while performing a combat mission in the special military operation zone. After both servicemen were injured as a result of a drone attack, the junior sergeant, who himself suffered a hand injury, decided to carry the commander with the call sign Yun to the shelter.

"We decided to leave the dangerous point <...> in an open field. Since Junior Lieutenant Yun was immobilized and could not continue moving, I had to take him on my shoulders and move through an open field 700 m to the nearest forest belt," Angel said.

In the forest belt, the fighters provided each other with first aid and continued moving towards their positions. Commander Yun, whose life was saved by an Angel, sent the idea of awarding the hero with a state award.

Both servicemen are undergoing treatment and rehabilitation at the hospital.
