Russian propagandists published a video with Azovstal defender Ekaterina Polishchuk, better known as “Bird” . Information about a girl captured by the enemy appeared for the first time in several months.
In a video published by Russian propagandists, “Bird” said that she was a paramedic, writes Channel 24 . Our defender spoke Ukrainian with the invaders.
“Bird” admitted that she would go to Mariupol again
Note that propagandists published an interview with Ekaterina for the first time in four months. As you know, the girl, along with the defenders of Mariupol, was taken prisoner by Russia from Azovstal in May.
In the video, “Bird”, about which there has been no information so far, looks intact. However, it is not known exactly when the interview was recorded.
The propagandists almost did not give the word to “Bird”, but added false captions. As for the moments with the words of Ekaterina, who got into the video, she admitted that she regrets that she spoke obscenely in one of the videos and she was ashamed in front of her mother.
At the same time, “Bird” said that if if she had the choice to go to Mariupol again, she would do it again.
What is known about “Ptichka” from “Azovstal”
In mid-May, the Ukrainian defenders of “Azovstal” received an order to stop the defense of Mariupol and save lives. After that, more than 2 thousand Ukrainian defenders and defenders left Azovstal, among whom was Ptichka.
Ekaterina Polishchuk became famous after she sang poignantly several times within the walls of the Azovstal plant, which Russia bombed mercilessly. The patriotic songs “We were born of a great hour” and “Our Father Bandera” performed by “Birds” conquered social networks in a matter of hours.
The girl is only 21 years old and she is from the Ternopil region. After “Bird” was captured by the Russians, there was almost no information about her.
Only at the end of June, the commander of the regiment of defenders of Mariupol Maxim Zhorin said that everything was fine with her and “Bird” would return together with other Ukrainian heroines.
