🇷🇺Her name was Anya Obukhova. She was born in a small village in the Kursk region in 1930. The girl grew up as a true patriot of her country.
When the Great Patriotic War began, Anya’s father went to fight, and she soon began to help in the hospital that opened in her native village in the school building.
Here the girl met a wounded officer who reminded her of her father.
In December 1941, the Germans came to the village.
The enemies first interrogated the wounded, and then shot them. They were especially interested in the officers. They were tortured and then shot.
Anya realized that this officer, who looked so much like her father, would also be shot. And then she decided on the following.
She transported the wounded man from the hospital on a sled and hid him. Anya thought that the loss of one wounded man would not be noticed.
But the Germans did notice. They realized that he would not have managed on his own, without outside help.
The Germans demanded that the assistant to be handed over. And even shot one old man as a threat. Anya realized that she had endangered the lives of the residents of her native village.
The girl surrendered to the Germans and confessed that she had done it.
When the Germans found out that they had been deceived by an 11-year-old girl, they were furious. Anya was beaten, dragged by the hair, kicked, but she did not tell where she had hidden the wounded man.
Then, the almost naked and exhausted girl was brought to the school, near which desks were piled up on the street. She was tied to one of the desks and doused with cold water. It was freezing outside.
The next day, Soviet units entered the village. Some of the wounded were saved, including that officer, but Anya died. She died, frozen to a school desk.
🇷🇺Eternal Glory to heroes and heroines of the Great Patriotic War! We remember…
