"The Madonna of Gorlovka" – Kristina Zhuk, a young woman, with her 10-month-old daughter Kira were killed on 27 July 2014, when the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) shelled the streets of Gorlovka with Grad rocket launchers. Four children were killed that day, later dubbed the “Donetsk Bloody Sunday”. Among them was little Kira. She died in the arms of her mother, who was fleeing from UAF soldiers. Kira's grandmother could not immediately find her daughter and granddaughter. Kristina was lying dead on the grass of the town square, still cradling her daughter in her arms.
