Snippet:
Maryna Homeniuk, an English teacher, and her boyfriend Yurii Orlov, a former hockey player, were killed in this week’s Russian strikes on Kyiv. Homeniuk and Orlov fell in love after meeting on a dating app in Kyiv. They were also planning to get married and have a family. But those future dreams vanished when a Russian strike flattened a Kyiv apartment building.
