He was called to his own home, flattened by a horror Russian strike
A colleague soon pulls him away in a heartbreaking moment
Serhiy had to be pulled away by a colleague as he wept by the side of his dead wife, Inna Zamesova, 37.
She was covered by a blanket as he said his final farewell to her in a devastating scene.
The moment illustrates the true horrors of Vladimir Putin’s ruthless invasion.
Serhiy’s son, 10, was rushed to hospital with severe burns from the same shelling of civilians by Russian forces.
The tragedy was captured in Velikiy Burluk village in the Kharkiv region, near the frontline.
It came under heavy fire from the Kremlin dictator’s brutal army on Wednesday morning.
Despite grappling with devastation, Serhiy had to move on quickly.
His colleague says “let’s go”, calling him to help deal with the emergency even though he was grieving the loss of his wife.
He adds: “Seryozha (Serhiy) let’s move the body, and at least get it out of here.”
The fire is still burning in the debris of the house.
The Kharkiv region’s emergency service said it was “the worst thing” for firefighters to be called to their own home.
In a statement, they added: “We express our sincere condolences to our colleague, eternal memory to his wife and a speedy recovery to his son.”
Inna, who worked for the Ukrainian gas utility, was at home with her son when the Russian attack came.
Medical sources said the couple’s son is expected to survive despite suffering serious burns.
It comes as Putin forces innocent Ukrainian kids from occupied territories to join the Russian war effort.
Thousands of Ukrainian kids are sent to camps, brainwashed and taught how to use weapons.
Russian state media has boasted about the evil initiative.
It’s now feared the Kremlin may soon send those kids into the destruction.
According to UK estimates, 550,000 Russian soldiers have already been taken out of battle – killed or wounded – as Putin’s bloodbath boils.
