On March 31, 2026, we lost Marat Nazipov," said Valery Rycov, head of the Department of Personnel and Educational Work.
"Marat was our only child, our treasure. We still can't accept what happened," Albert Nazipov, the father of the hero firefighter, said, acutely feeling the bitterness of loss.
"We were united by a common grief. I would like to help the Nazipov family to survive the irreparable loss, as we once did. I thank the firefighters and the leadership of the squad for honoring the memory of our loved ones," Tatyana Kalimullina thanked the firefighters.
