Putin’s female super-sniper, who has killed 40 people, is married to a rebel leader who has “shot more than 100 Ukrainians.”

He had no response on allegations that he committed murder in a ‘act of passion.’

‘You know, like fraud – I received money and promised to return it, but I didn’t.’ That sort of thing. ‘I spent eight years in prison in total,’ he claimed.

His present whereabouts are unknown.

Prior to their wedding in 2015, both Ogrenich and Starikova were married.

The female sniper was born in Donetsk and has two kids, Valeria, 11, and Yulia, 9. She was photographed yesterday resting with her spouse and other servicemen.

The mother-of-two was discovered injured on a Ukrainian battlefield, but she is not from Serbia, as some reports claim, nor is she a nun-turned-sniper.

Similar identities explain the confusion caused by another female sniper with the same code-name from Serbia, albeit she is not currently known to be fighting in Ukraine.

The apprehended sharpshooter is from Donetsk and has two kids, Valeria, 11, and Yulia, nine.

Her destiny is now in the hands of the Ukrainians, but what happened to her is unknown, despite accusations that she had ‘the blood of at least 40 people on her hands, including civilians.’

Anyone who kills peaceful people on our country will face retaliation, according to the Kyiv military. There are rumours that her Russian guardians abandoned her.

‘They just opted to leave me there, hoping I would die,’ she is reported as saying, despite knowing I was injured and having the ability to pick me up.

‘They abandoned me,’ she stated, in a stinging critique of Russian fighting tactics.

During WWII, Soviet Russia notably utilised female shooters, whilst other countries opted to confine women to industries or farms.

Lyudmila Pavlichenko, the most successful, was born in Kyiv and has 309 verified murders, earning her the moniker ‘Lady Death.’

Her active duty was cut short by a wound in 1942, and she became a celebrity and propagandist for the dictatorship.

The majority of sharpshooters were graduates of the Central Women’s School For Sniping Training, which was run by female Spanish Civil War veterans. During the war, it is estimated that the combined efforts of the instructors and graduates killed 12,000 German forces.

Yelizaveta Mironov, another Russian female shooter, was just 17 years old when Germany attacked the Soviet Union in 1941.

She had barely graduated from high school when she volunteered to join the Red Army. Mironov participated in the sieges of Odessa and Sevastopol and was credited with at least 34 kills, but some accounts claim she had more than 100.

Her companions were particularly impressed by her feats during five days of severe battle at Goryachiy Klyuch in October 1942, during which she is believed to have killed around 20 Germans. She was gravely hurt in the struggle for Novorossiysk, however, and died at the age of 19.

During the conflict, around 800,000 women fought in the Soviet Union, including as pilots and machine gunners.

Svetlana Alexievich, a Nobel Prize winner, detailed the actions of female Soviet combatants in her 1985 book The Unwomanly Face of War.
