“I asked her to be extra cautious. That nowadays, a mistake costs extremely much,” her husband Yevhen Yalanskyi says. “But she was helping everyone around. I asked her to think of evacuation but she did not listen.” Friends and family believe she was targeted at random

She had a Telegram channel to keep friends updated On Tuesday, she wrote about helping a kindergarten, where 40 children were without food & diapers, bringing aid to a military hospital & food for volunteer dogs “We are not scared. We are united like never before. “We will win”

On Thursday, the day she would die, Yalanskaya outlined her plans for the next day: “I am tired. Third day in the car,” she wrote. “Could not get to Irpin. They blew up the bridge where I went yesterday. “Tomorrow we’ll try to enter from another side.”
