Valentyna Pinchuk’s life was taken by the Russian army during the shelling of Kostiantynivka in Donetsk region.

At around noon on August 24, 2024, the enemy struck the city with artillery. A residential neighborhood became the target of the occupiers. As a result of the attack, five people sustained injuries incompatible with life. Valentyna Ivanivna was still taken to the hospital, but she died there.

Valentyna Pinchuk was 60 years old. She was born in Donetsk region. She worked as a midwife in the obstetrics and gynecology department of the Multidisciplinary Intensive Care Hospital of the Kostiantynivka City Council. She had many friends. Those who knew her remember her as a reliable friend, a kind-hearted and decent person.

“Kind and sincere, with a wonderful voice and a warm heart. A gentle person who was always smiling. Her colleagues respected her for her kindness, professionalism, and dedication to her work. Bright and eternal memory to our colleague and true professional,” the Kostiantynivka hospital staff said.

At 9:00 a.m. — the national minute of silence. The Donetsk Regional Military Administration and the Memorial platform: Victims of Russia commemorate the residents of Donetsk region killed by Russians.
