Rostyslav "Drohobych" Shiyko is a fan of the football club "Karpaty" (Lviv), one of the leaders and founders of the band "Banderstadt Ultras".

Rostislav Orestovych Shiyko was born on July 23, 1989 in Lviv. He studied at the Lyceum of International Relations named after V. Stusa. From childhood, he was marked by intolerance to everything Russian. Even in preschool age, he burned campaign posters and propaganda leaflets of the Communist Party, which he found in entrances. He was engaged in sports, in particular, football and boxing. Graduated from Lviv Polytechnic National University.

 At the age of 16, he first came to the fan section of the "Ukraine" stadium. For him, it became the most significant event, which he remembered with such delight in his eyes, which cannot be described in any words. Next - more than a hundred trips for the native club and the national team, numerous performances, banners, graffiti, stickers, promotion of T-shirts with the "Carpathian" symbol, fights with other fan movements, friends in every Ukrainian city, rebel songs in the sector and the heart where the phrase "Ukraine above all" is not just a slogan, but the meaning of being.

Participant of the Orange Revolution, and later the Revolution of Dignity. A volunteer, and in 2015 a fighter of the "Azov" regiment, which defended the integrity of the country during the anti-terrorist operation. He was a mortarman. On July 23, on his birthday, he took an oath of loyalty to the people of Ukraine. And kept it... For Rostislav not to do anything for the sake of victory, it always seemed to him that this was not enough, not enough. Having become a father in 2016 and having less time for activist affairs, he successfully started running the blog "Military History". His knowledge of world and Ukrainian history was bottomless. Thoroughly studied the history of the Balkan Wars, the Vietnam War and the participation of Ukrainians in it. He starred in a TV show about military conflicts on Channel 24.

Every year on Independence Day, he bought blue and yellow ribbons and, together with his little daughters, tied them on the graves of the Sich Riflemen at the Yaniv Cemetery. Memory and respect for the exploits of past generations permeated his entire being. With the beginning of a full-scale invasion, "Drohobych" immediately took up arms. Without hesitation, he went to the military commissariat, but due to a number of certain circumstances, he was unable to go to the front, which depressed him greatly. For 5 months, he sought permission to go to the East of the country as part of his 103rd brigade of the TrO.

Rostyslav Shiyko died on October 15, 2022, defending the Luhansk region. His life, as well as the life of another fan of the Lviv club, was cut short by an explosion of an anti-tank mine. The fallen Warrior is survived by his wife and two young daughters. Relatives and brothers are sure that Rostislav would not have been able to do otherwise and not stand up for the defense of his land. His inner world was seething like the mouth of a volcano, giving him and those around him the impetus to fight. Confirming these words, friends tirelessly carry green and white "Carpathian" "roses" to the grave of a faithful son of Ukraine, firmly imprinting what he was like.
