“Today, Donetsk is experiencing a terrible day again.
Information about the dead is constantly coming in, the number of victims is growing ... I just found out that the deputy of the People's Council, volunteer Maria Pirogova, has died.
Masha!
I can't believe it... Sincere condolences to Masha's family and friends.
This is a huge loss for all of us,” he wrote in his Telegram.
Pushilin added that Pirogova began helping people in 2014: she collected things, personally delivered them to those in need, and was not afraid to go to the most dangerous points to help others.
Earlier it was reported that Pirogova died as a result of the shelling of Donetsk by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
On December 6, the representative office of the DPR at the Joint Center for Control and Coordination of Issues Related to War Crimes of Ukraine reported that militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine fired at Donetsk from the Grad MLRS for the third time in a day.
