Putin and Women
Heartbreaking story behind one of the saddest images of the war: Bucha victim who dreamed of becoming a make-up blogger is identified by her unique manicure
The gut-wrenching photograph (left) showed the manicured hand of a woman killed during Russia’s brutal occupation of the town found north-west of Kyiv. Her body was found lying on the side of the road next to her bicycle, her arm outstretched to her side. Her bold red and pink nails stood out amidst the dirt. After the photo was shared widely on social media, and as the tragic events inside the town at the hands of the Russian occupiers were being pieced together, the woman’s unique manicure was recognised by a makeup artist in nearby Gostomel. The hand in the gut-wrenching picture, it turns out, belonged to 52-year-old Iryna Filkina (pictured right) – an aspiring makeup artist who posted tutorials to her social media pages. The heartbreaking story behind one of the war’s saddest and most iconic images (pictured) has been uncovered, as Ukrainian authorities continue to count the dead in Bucha
