    Friends and family mourn Bucha victim who became a symbol

    Svitlana Safonova, 60, reacts as she visits the grave of her sister Iryna Filkina, 52, along with Iryna's partner Anatoliy Shchyruk in Bucha, outside of Kyiv, Ukraine February 7, 2023. According to the witnesses, Iryna was shot dead by Russian soldiers while riding a bicycle on her way home. She was later identified by local make-up artist Anastasia Subacheva, who recognized the pink and purple heart emblazoned on one of her nails. A shocking photograph of a dead woman's hand with red nail varnish captured the horrors of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. REUTERS/Gleb Garanich
