At 97, Lidia Lomikovskaya walked 10 kilometers to escape the Russian occupation. She crossed the front line under shelling, leaning on a stick and a splintered board.
In the chaos of fighting and shelling, Lidia and her relatives were split up, and Lidia decided to escape on her own. The story of her courage went viral on social networks, touching many people. A Ukrainian bank, Monobank, bought the pensioner a house near the city of Dnipro. Now, Lidia has settled there along with her granddaughter and son-in-law
