Kostiantyn Vlasenko

No military or civilian awards for Vlasenko's conduct appear in the retrieved coverage. Ukrainian state honours may exist but are not mentioned in any source in this set, and none should be asserted without one. What the record does show is a distinction of a different kind: Ukrainian commanders reported his evacuation as the first known aerial drone rescue of a wounded soldier, and Reuters, Meduza, NV, Censor, The Independent, the New York Post and the Daily Mail all carried the story within four days.
