Vitaly “Ben” Leskov is a fan of the club “Podillya” (Khmelnitsky), a representative of the team “Ultras Podillya”.

Vitaly Olegovich Leskov was born on July 22, 2000 in the city of Khmelnitsky. He studied at school No. 1, as well as at the Polytechnic College of his native city. From a young age, he chose for himself the path of the Warrior, who with weapons in his hands would defend his native land. He adhered to right-wing views, was engaged in combat combat and actively supported his native “Podillya”. At the age of 16, Vitaly went to the war to the ATO zone, saying at home that he was going to a school camp. He began his combat path with the Ukrainian Volunteer Corps. He was also a member of the All-Ukrainian NGO “Sokil”.

Vitaly dreamed of connecting his life with the army as soon as he turned 18. It so happened that the already adult “Ben” signed a contract with the Armed Forces of Ukraine and served in various military units, fundamentally choosing those who are on the cutting edge of the fight against the enemy. He has been on the front lines many times, defending the country and all of us. They remember that Vitaliy loved life, but even more loved Ukraine, for which he was ready to give the most valuable. Friends of Vitaly say that he was a very kind person who was always ready to come to the rescue. Despite his employment in the NGO, he was actively interested in the affairs of his fan movement and met with teammates in the sector.

During the full-scale war, “Ben” was in the Luhansk direction as part of the 72nd Separate Mechanized Brigade named after him. Black Zaporozhts. Died on July 5 from being hit by debris as a result of enemy artillery shelling. Vitaly Leskov had a mother, as well as a bride with whom they planned to marry soon.
