After completing his mandatory military service, Mykhailo worked in the construction sector. In 2015, he joined the defense of Ukraine during the anti-terrorist operation, and in the summer of 2024, he was mobilized into the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Mykhailo’s wife recalls that “Mykhailo was ready to defend the country – both then, during the ATO, and now. He always radiated optimism and smiled even in difficult situations. People loved him – and he loved people. He dreamed of returning to his family, to his daughter, whom he loved dearly. She is a champion of Ukraine in shooting, and Mykhailo was proud of her.”
On December 12, 2025, the serviceman was awarded the Presidential Honor “For the Defense of Ukraine.”
Unfortunately, on January 11, 2026, 40-year-old soldier Mykhailo Yavorsky was killed as a result of an enemy drone strike in Donetsk region. He is survived by his wife, daughter, mother, and sister.
The farewell to Mykhailo Yavorsky will take place on Saturday, January 17, at 10:00 AM in Independence Square in Rivne. The serviceman will be buried at the cemetery in the village of Pidtsurky in the Rivne region.
