The military man brought Bilyk to tears – how it happened
During the concert, a military man approached the stage and wanted to give Bilyk flowers. The singer even stopped performing the song, she was impressed. The defender of Ukraine managed to get up on stage even on crutches and hugged the singer.
She started crying and tried to continue singing, but her emotions won out. Bilyk hugged the military man tightly, and other spectators reacted to the touching moment with applause.
What Bilyk said about the defender of Ukraine
Subsequently, the singer gave an interview on the radio and said that she knew the man who brought her flowers. The military man used to be a choreographer and worked with Bilyk. But against the backdrop of a full-scale war between the Russian Federation and Ukraine, Anton Smetsky went to the front. There he lost part of his leg.
“I’m still amazed, it’s like someone pierced my heart with a ray of light. After this meeting I’m beaming… It was in Lutsk, it was our last concert on the tour,” the singer recalled.

Then she found out that a man had come to her performance and wanted to see her. Bilyk remembered Smetsky well, so, of course, she agreed and greeted him.
“Anton is now in a rehabilitation center. He is waiting for a prosthesis. During the performance, I already realized what I could give him, because it was his birthday that day,” said the artist.
She decided to help raise funds for a prosthesis for a military man, which costs between 15 and 20 thousand euros. And now her foundation is doing this.
