Ukraine girl, 10, shot dead by ‘bored and drunk’ Russian troops: family

A 10-year-old Ukrainian girl was shot dead by “bored” Russian troops who drunkenly fired a volley of shots at random, according to her family.

Anastasia Stoluk, known as Nastya, was killed after the invading troops shot into her house in Shybene, about 40 miles north of Kyiv, her cousin Anya Stoluk, 18, told the Times of London.

Nastya was killed immediately and an uncle who was with her was also hit and hospitalized, but the family has been unable to get info on his condition, according to Anya’s adoptive mother, Vera Dmitrienko.

“People say that the soldiers just got so bored. They were even telling this to people in the village,” Dmitrienko, 40, told the UK paper.

“They looted all the stores in the village, of course they got a lot of alcohol from the stores and got drunk and started shooting,” she said.
