War is always full of bloodshed and pain. No matter whether a man or a woman, as long as they go to the battlefield, bloodshed and sacrifice are inevitable.
htmlOn July 13, Volgograd, a city in southwestern Russia, was filled with a sad atmosphere, because on this day, the funeral of a Russian female soldier will be held here.The female soldier who died in battle was Anastasia Savitskaya, 35 years old this year. In addition to her military status, she is also a mother of two children and a wife to her husband.
Volgograd is Savitskaya's hometown, and her remains will be buried here.
After the funeral began, the folks from his hometown came to see Savitskaya off one after another. The soldiers held the portrait in their hands, and the people bid farewell to the hero behind.
They said that Savitskaya was a "real hero" and that people in her hometown were saddened by her sacrifice and even more proud of her bravery.
According to Russian army records, Savitskaya was the first female soldier to die on the Ukrainian battlefield during the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
Savitskaya's husband is a veteran. He is very clear about what it means for his wife to go to the battlefield, but his wife's sacrifice is still beyond his expectation.
At the funeral, he was distraught and said, "How am I going to go on with my life now? Why did I let you go there?".
He kept talking, calling Savitskaya "the dearest, the most beautiful, the best person."
The unfortunate death of his wife made him suddenly feel that he had lost his direction in life.
But they still have two young children, and they also hope that he can cheer up and take good care of their two young children for his wife.
Savitskaya was a corporal during his lifetime. The military did not disclose how she was killed in Ukraine, but according to Savitskaya’s boss, Major Sergey Minochkin, she was in Ukraine His main task is to be responsible for humanitarian affairs. There is a high probability that he was attacked and killed while performing humanitarian tasks.
Savetskaya, 35, has been joining the army since she was 18, and this is her dream.
Going to Ukraine to participate in this battle was also her regretless choice as a soldier.
Although Savitskaya is the first Russian female soldier to die in Ukraine, according to Russian media reports, about 136 soldiers from the Volgograd region have been killed in combat since February this year. .
As for Russia as a whole, it is still unknown how many officers and soldiers have been killed since the beginning of the special military operation.
The Russian Federation’s armed forces have 1.027 million people. However, in such a large army, the number of female soldiers is not large, accounting for only 4.26% of the total strength of the federal armed forces.
According to figures released by Russian Defense Minister General Shoigu in 2020, there are more than 41,000 female soldiers in the Russian army. 4,000 of them are officers, and among these 4,000 people are 44 colonels.
Russia holds a large-scale military parade every year in Moscow's Red Square. The heroic images of Russian female soldiers are all moving.
On the same day that Savitskaya was buried, another funeral was also held in Lugansk in Udong.
The funeral was held in the village of Vidnoye in Luhansk. This time, 58 men were buried collectively. They were all Luhansk militiamen who died in the Russo-Ukrainian war.
Luhansk regional official Anna Soroka emphasized in her eulogy, "Here we say goodbye to 58 men. This is a very painful thing. We must know how much we have sacrificed to defend our motherland. price".
In addition to the Russian army, after the Russian-Ukrainian conflict broke out, many female soldiers in Ukraine also died in action. For example, the famous Ukrainian actress Zvera was killed in battle with the Russian army in Kiev .
Zvera is the heroine of the book "Girls Cut Braids", which won the Shevchenko Prize.
In addition to Zvera, the 42-year-old Ukrainian famous female sniper Olena was also killed by the Russian army during the battle.
Currently, 17% of Ukrainian soldiers are female, which is the highest number in the world.
In addition, Ukraine recently issued an order prohibiting Ukrainian women who fall within the scope of military conscription requirements from leaving the country.
If this is the case, the possibility of Ukrainian women losing their lives on the battlefield will greatly increase, which is a really sad thing.
Although war is a continuation of politics, we still hope that politicians can control their desires and end the war through negotiation as soon as possible so that the world can restore peace and prosperity.
Ordinary people can reduce bloodshed and unnecessary sacrifices, which will prevent countless families from the human tragedy of family destruction and death.
If this is the case, then there is no great good.
But will those politicians who caused the war listen to the calls for peace from the people of the world?
