Anna told us that on March 7, a Russian soldier barged into her home with her spouse.

“He dragged me to a nearby residence. He told me to strip or he’d shoot me. He threatened to murder me if I didn’t obey. Then he raped me “stated.

Anna identified her assailant as a Russian-allied Chechen combatant.

“Four more troops entered as he raped me. I believed I was doomed. They took him. I never saw him “said. She believes a separate Russian team saved her.

Anna returned home and found him. He’d been abdominally shot.

“He tried to go after me to help me, but he got shot,” she added. They took refuge in a neighbor’s house. Because of the fighting, they couldn’t take her husband. He died two days later.

Anna cried her way through her narrative. She showed us her husband’s grave in their backyard. A tall wooden cross marks the grave. Anna told us she is receiving psychiatric treatment from a local hospital.
