The exact grave coordinates are not confirmed yet — go by the address and ask locally. We don't publish a coordinate we haven't checked.

1.Maidan has its own beis hachaim. It is not the Volove (Mizhhirya) one — that is a separate cemetery about nine kilometres south, at the Suvorova and Leonova crossroads in Mizhhirya town.
2.Ask in the village to be walked to the beis hachaim rather than setting navigation and hoping — it is not signposted.
3.Maidan is in the Mizhhirya hromada of Zakarpattia. The usual way in is Košice in Slovakia, over the Uzhhorod border, then about two and a half hours of mountain driving. Ukraine wartime advisories apply.
