She should have won stages and lit the world with her smile!

Katia was only 11. She went in for rhythmic gymnastics in Mariupol. The shell, launched by the Rashists, hit the house where Kateryna Diachenko was. Her body was found later under the rubble.

Anastasia Meshchanenkova, a rhythmic gymnastics coach, reported Katia’s death on Instagram.

“Can there be any justification for this? Look at this talented girl. She should have won stages and lit the world with her smile! What are the children guilty of? I believe that a place in hell is waiting for everyone related to this crime. The sooner, the better,” — wrote Meshchanenkova on her Instagram page.

A little star of Ukrainian rhythmic gymnastics. She won several times in her age group in big competitions. She dreamed about great victories and had all the reasons to hope for them.

Rest in peace!
