The American killed during a military strike by Russia in Ukraine has been identified as Jimmy Hill.
Family members confirm to FOX 9 that 68-year-old Hill, who was born in Eveleth, Minnesota and graduated from Mahtomedi High School, was killed in the city of Chernihiv in Ukraine while trying to find food.
"He was only going out to try and find more food because the hospital ration on millet, and that's all they were getting every day was small portions of millet, so he was going out to get more food to bring back," said Katya Hill, Jimmy's sister. Hill's family told FOX 9 that he was working as a social worker in Ukraine. His longtime partner, who is from Ukraine, suffers from multiple sclerosis and has been in the hospital since the Russian invasion broke out. Hill would spend half of his year in the U.S., running AirBNBs in Idaho and Montana, and half of the year in Ukraine.
