An “adored” mum was killed with her two children and a family dog as they tried to flee Ukraine shelling, with her distraught husband saying “forgive me” for not being able to protect them.
Tatyana Perebeynos, 43, and her children were among Ukrainians trying to leave Irpin, on the outskirts of Kyiv, when the town came under fire from Russian mortar fire.
Images of her body lying in the road alongside her children Alise, 9, and Nikita, 18, were viewed around the world and showed the savagery of the invasion.
