An aid worker was shot dead by a Russian “death squad” as she delivered food to a local dog shelter, after refusing to evacuate so she could save the animals.
Anastasiia Yalanskaya, a 26-year-old recruiter, was slaughtered on Thursday alongside two other volunteers, as they took the supplies to a dog shelter in Bucha, 18 miles outside of Kyiv.
Her family said the three volunteers had been targeted in their car at close range by Putin’s men.
