Yevgeni Onopriyenko, a renowned writer of considerable literary acclaim, was born on December 11, 1925, in the quaint town of Balty, situated within the boundaries of the RSFSR, USSR, an entity that would eventually evolve into the modern-day Novy Oskol Raion, Belgorod Oblast, Russia.
Throughout his illustrious career, Onopriyenko garnered widespread recognition for his impressive body of work, which included the notable literary pieces "Esli vrag ne sdayotsya..." (1983),"Deystvuy po obstanovke!" (1985),and "K svetu" (1968).
Tragically, Onopriyenko's life was cut short when he passed away on October 31, 1997, in the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv.
