Skylar James Gregg, a 23-year-old from Washington who left home in the spring to join the Ukranian war effort, has died.

The Daily Beast reported on Friday that Gregg’ father and commander in Ukraine both confirmed the man’s death. The Ukranian commander, who declined to reveal his name to the news outlet, also said he could not reveal where exactly Gregg died because of security concerns with Ukraine’s fight against Russia ongoing.
