Oleksandr Usyk at the weighing ceremony. In the first photo, you can see Oleksandr Matsievskyi and a commemorating poem. Russians executed him on video, Oleksandr was without weapons, smoking a cigarette, saying “Slava Ukraini” and then being shot with from multiple sides.

1. This title was really confusing due to both people being named Oleksandr. The two men have no familial relation and coincidently share a given name. Here’s the wikipedia article about the execution that happened in 2022.

   Apologies if this comes across as ignorant, but I wanted to make sure that others who were similarly confused could reference information about the incident.
