Farewell was held in Vilnyansk for Tetiana Syrovatko and her mother Iryna, who died as a result of the shelling on December 6.

Both were buried in closed coffins in one grave, reports Suspilne.

When all this happened, for some reason, I wrote to her first. She didn't respond. I looked in Telegram and saw that she had been on for half an hour before the strike. Then I started calling her, but she didn't answer. I called the police and reported the car number. That's how I learned that the girls were no longer with us...

Anastasia Bukata, Iryna's friend, shared memories of the deceased. She admits that she cannot believe this loss. They had been friends with Iryna for over 15 years. And when Tetiana was born, Anastasia became her godmother. They celebrated many different events together and were always there for each other.

15 years ago we chose a wedding dress for Iryna, and just days ago a funeral dress. Very hard. I can't believe it. Such a loss - for the entire family, for us, for friends.

Recalling Iryna and Tetiana, Anastasia says that they were active and energetic people who loved animals. They often took stray cats from the street and had them sterilized. They were also patriots of their country, engaged in sports, practiced fly yoga, and signed up for self-defense.

At the farewell to Tetiana, her classmate Daria Shmyhla came. She says that she learned about her friend's death from her mother and still cannot comprehend this loss. Daria recounted that they became friends with Tetiana after she transferred to their school. They studied English together and spent Time together.

Recall that as a result of the shelling of Zaporizhzhia on December 6, 26 people were injured, and 10 civilians died. Among the dead were two schoolgirls, Lysenko Kateryna with her mother Natalia and father Serhii, as well as Syrovatko Tetiana with her mother Iryna.

On December 6, the Russian Federation launched a missile strike on Zaporizhzhia. Rescue operations were completed around 11:30 PM. The number of injured was 24, including three children.
