Karina Yershova, who lost her nails in the apparent fight for her life, was discovered dumped in a garden in the besieged Kyiv suburb, The Telegraph reported Wednesday.
The body of a 23-year-old Ukrainian woman has been discovered among hundreds of corpses in a mass grave in Bucha after she was raped, tortured and shot in the head, according to her grieving loved ones.
At Yershova’s funeral, Olena tried to pry open the coffin to get a last glimpse of her only daughter, but her husband, Andrii, pulled her away so she would not see the mutilated remains,The family was told that Yershova had suffered a “violent death” and had “tears and wounds” on the body, but authorities withheld details from them and urged Olena not to view images of the body, the Telegraph reported.
“The people who were killed without being raped seem to have been the ones who were bombed. Those people who were shot and tortured, the soldiers raped them almost every time,” Andrii added. The day after the invasion was launched on Feb. 24, the parents were evacuated from Irpin amid the bombing and relocated to Odessa.
