Quote from Yana Zinkevych: "She was fearless and did not hesitate to risk her life to save her comrades and help them return home alive. The Russians took her life, taking away our support and the military's chance to be saved. Her heart was always open to anyone who needed help. This death is a terrible loss to our battalion. May our brave sister-in-arms, Alpaca, be remembered forever. She left behind warm memories that will live on in our hearts."
The medical battalion added that Mariia-Khrystyna was a bright, boisterous and purposeful person, eager to learn.
"[Mariia-Khrystyna] had many plans for the future and devotedly loved what she did. She volunteered and raised funds through large fundraisers. She loved Ukraine even more, dreaming of its reconstruction after the victory," the medical battalion added.
Information about the burial of the deceased paramedic will be published later on the official pages of the Hospitallers.
