Ukraine: Severely injured mother buries husband and child after Gorlovka shelling

Hundreds of mourners gathered in Gorlovka, Thursday, to attend the funerals of a father and daughter who were killed in shelling in Gorlovka earlier in the week. Among those at the service was the mother and wife of the victims, who lost her arm in the same attack that claimed the lives of her family. Despite her doctor's advice she was able to make the ceremony with the aid of a wheelchair. On Tuesday evening a shell struck the family's home, killing 11-year-old Katya and her father, while at least three others also died elsewhere in the city during the aerial bombardment. Earlier in the day thousands took part in a minute's silence during a rally to mourn the deaths and to protest against the renewal of hostilities.
