Organizers presented 23 unique lots at the auction, including a painting by His Beatitude Sviatoslav, a rare stamp of Pope Leo XIII, an early printed book signed by Metropolitan Andrei Sheptytskyi, and a series of items from undisputed world champion Oleksandr Usyk.
Special thanks went to Rostyslav Tistyk for initiating and organizing the event.
"I bow deeply to the warriors of the 125th Separate Heavy Mechanized Brigade and to all our defenders for ensuring we have a country. 'Viribus Unitis'—with united efforts," Kozytskyi added.
Background:
The 125th Separate Territorial Defense Brigade was formed in March 2022. In June and July 2022, almost all the brigade's battalions moved to eastern Ukraine, taking part in battles in the Kharkiv and Donbas regions. Brigade battalions, together with other Ukraine's armed forces units, participated in the liberation of the villages of Ozernе, Dibrova, Yampil, and Torske.
On December 5, 2022, the brigade received its battle flag at St. Michael's Golden-Domed Monastery.
At the end of July 2025, the brigade was reorganized into a separate heavy mechanized brigade.
