Pregnant, panicking ... then the bomb struck

The Observer

August 03, 2025

Her name was Diana Koshyk and she was 23 years old. She liked to write poetry and paint, and she was the “love of my life”, says her husband Oleksandr Koshyk, 27.

Diana was seven months pregnant, carrying a son the couple had named Damir, when she was killed last week in a Russian strike at a maternity hospital in Ukraine’s eastern Dnipropetrovsk region. It was a high-risk pregnancy and doctors thought she would be safer staying at the hospital full-time.

At around 2am last Tuesday, hours after US President Donald Trump announced that he was shortening a ceasefire deadline imposed on Russia, Oleksandr received a panicked phone call. Diana was on her way to the hospital’s bomb shelter.
