Just a few days ago, award-winning Ukrainian author and war crimes researcher Victoria Amelina was killed when Russia bombed a restaurant in Kramatorsk.

"In the summer of 2022, Amelina had joined the human rights organization Truth Hounds, documenting war crimes in areas liberated by the Ukrainian army in the east, south, and north of Ukraine.

At the same time, she started working on her first nonfiction book, "War and Justice Diary: Looking at Women Looking at War," which she was writing in English. Soon to be published abroad, it is a chronicle of women who have documented their own lives during wartime, as well as the crimes committed by Russian occupying forces."
