The memory of Belarusian Heroes A. Nichiporchik and N. Kukonenko was honored in Baranovichi

A memorial meeting of the Heroic pilots was held in the city. Today is exactly 4 years since the tragedy. While performing a training flight, a Yak-130 Military plane of Lida assault air base crashes near. The pilots, at the cost of their lives, steered the falling out-of-control machine away from a residential area. In November 2021, the pilots A. Nichiporchik and N. Kukonenko were posthumously conferred the title "Hero of Belarus" by Presidential decree.
