The serviceman is to be presented with the <strong data-start=\"869\" data-end=\"887\">&#8220;Golden Star&#8221;<\/strong> order.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"890\" data-end=\"1106\">The document states that the title was awarded for <strong data-start=\"936\" data-end=\"967\">personal courage and heroism<\/strong> demonstrated while defending the state sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, as well as selfless service to the Ukrainian people. The decree does not specify which combat episode served as the basis for the award. However, shortly before it was signed, footage circulated in Ukraine showing <strong>Polskyi<\/strong> personally evacuating two severely wounded servicemen from under strikes by Russian drones.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/telegram.org\/js\/telegram-widget.js?22\" data-telegram-post=\"lachentyt\/66535\" data-width=\"100%\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1391\" data-end=\"1604\">Ukrainian assault troops were conducting a combat mission in one of the populated areas. They pushed forward and cleared several Russian positions, but during their return the enemy attacked them with drones of the <strong data-start=\"1591\" data-end=\"1603\">&#8220;Molniya&#8221;<\/strong> type. Two servicemen suffered severe injuries and could no longer move on their own. They were moved to a relatively safer location, after which command began an evacuation using a <strong data-start=\"1787\" data-end=\"1825\">ground robotic system<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1828\" data-end=\"2063\">However a Russian <strong>FPV drone struck the platform and disabled it<\/strong>. As a result of the strike, the servicemen received additional wounds to their arms and legs and were left in the open. The situation was being observed by a Ukrainian reconnaissance drone. Waiting for another robot would have meant losing precious time. As <strong>Vladyslav Polskyi<\/strong> said, daylight was coming, and Russian drones could inflict a repeat strike.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"quote-light\">\n<p data-start=\"2329\" data-end=\"2387\">&#8220;I insisted: either now, or never,&#8221; the serviceman recalled.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"2389\" data-end=\"2609\">After agreeing with the battalion commander, <strong>Polskyi got behind the wheel of a pickup truck and, at high speed, headed to the wounded<\/strong>. He did not put on body armor, because he believed the gear would slow him down while loading the fighters. The commander reached the damaged robot, <strong>carried one serviceman to the vehicle himself and helped the other get in<\/strong>. After that he quickly left the danger zone. At that time Russian drones were already approaching the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2840\" data-end=\"3030\">According to <strong>Polskyi,<\/strong> a delay of even <strong data-start=\"2880\" data-end=\"2896\">10\u201315 minutes<\/strong> could have had fatal consequences. From the moment the robotic platform was hit to the completion of the evacuation took about <strong data-start=\"3013\" data-end=\"3029\">30\u201340 minutes<\/strong>. The wounded were taken to a stabilization point, and later \u2014 to hospitals. At the time of speaking with journalists, they were in serious but stable condition.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"quote-light\">\n<p data-start=\"3186\" data-end=\"3301\">&#8220;It doesn&#8217;t matter whose they are: there are no strangers,&#8221; the commander said, explaining that the rescued servicemen served in other companies.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"3303\" data-end=\"3500\">Polskyi also <a class=\"decorated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/armyinform.com.ua\/2026\/08\/18\/shans-buv-duzhe-malenkyj-vladyslav-polskyj-rozpoviv-detali-poryatunku-poranenyh-z-pidbytogo-nrk\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\" data-start=\"3335\" data-end=\"3499\">told the details of the operation on the air of &#8220;Army FM&#8221;<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3542\" data-end=\"3674\"><strong data-start=\"3542\" data-end=\"3576\">Vladyslav Polskyi is 29 years old<\/strong>, his call sign is <strong data-start=\"3594\" data-end=\"3605\">&#8220;Teacher&#8221;<\/strong>.
