Biography[edit]

During the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Haidai served as head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration.[7]
During the 2022 Battle of Sievierodonetsk, Haidai observed that "The Russians are using their Syrian war tactic in Sievierodonetsk. First, they try to raze a few kilometers of area with air and artillery fire and advance with ground troops. When they gain strength, they retreat, and start shooting with long-range weapons. On the other hand, when they start hitting with cannons, we retreat and then return to our positions."[citation needed]
The Ukrainian Cabinet of Ministers agreed to dismiss Haidai from his position on 14 March 2023, along with the governors of Odesa and Khmelnytskyi oblasts.[8][9][10] Haidai was dismissed as Governor by Presidential decree on 15 March 2023.[8]
