A funeral was held in Kyiv on Monday for three firefighters killed responding to a Russian airstrike on the Ukrainian capital last week.

The causes of a secondary explosion that claimed their lives remain under investigation.

The farewell ceremony took place at a fire station in the Sviatoshynskyi district, where relatives, friends, and colleagues gathered to pay their respects.

Fire trucks sounded their sirens in honor of the fallen.
