Liza's mother, Iryna, went yesterday morning with her daughter to an educational center in Vinnytsia where the child regularly attended speech therapy sessions. The video shows the girl pushing her own baby carriage while laughing. What the mother and daughter did not know was that this was their last moment together.
Just before 11 a.m., Iryna and Liza pass a building from the former Soviet era that is now a cultural center. A few minutes later, three missiles, probably fired from a Russian submarine in the Black Sea, exploded in the area. Little Liza was killed instantly. Her mother survived the attack, but was seriously injured and lost her leg.
Liza was one of three children who died in the attack. In total, 23 people died. A local newspaper was able to speak to Iryna's best friend. She was conscious when she was taken to intensive care, but Liza died instantly. I can't say more, it's too painful, she testified.
Olena Zelenska, the wife of President Zelensky, also expressed her sadness over the death of Liza. Today I saw the terrible photo of a broken baby carriage in Vinnytsia. I suddenly realized that I knew this girl. We met while shooting a video to celebrate Christmas. She was smart, honest and happy, reacted the First Lady.
