Two occupiers shot her husband and then raped a 33-year-old Ukrainian woman in the village of Shevchenkove, in the Kyiv region

Natalia (not her real name), a 33-year-old Ukrainian woman, said drunken Russian occupiers had raped her for several hours.

As reported by The Times, they shot her husband in the yard of their house in the Kyiv region.

Natalia’s 4-year-old son hid in the boiler room while two drunken occupiers put a gun to the woman’s temple, forced her to undress, and raped her. According to the woman, the soldier who shot her husband told her: “You better shut up. Otherwise, I’ll take your child and show him his mother’s brains scattered around the house.”

The Russian occupiers returned about 20 minutes later to rape the woman again. The soldiers “were so drunk that they could barely stand on their feet.”

“Eventually, they both fell asleep in the chairs. I crept into the boiler room and told my son that we had to run very fast. While I was opening the gate, my son was standing next to his father’s body, but it was dark… He did not understand that this was his father”. 

Now Natalia and her son are staying with relatives in Ternopil.

Natalia has not yet told her 4-year-old son about his father’s death, whom she never buried. The woman admits that she does not know how to live with all this.
