Marianna Vyshegirskaya
She did not die, it was the other woman that died.

Number of victims
"killing at least four people and injuring at least sixteen, and leading to at least one stillbirth". This source is cited, which says "The local authority has said three people including a girl were killed," plus 17 injured. Apparently one was added to the number of killed persons to account for the death of the unnamed pregnant woman, and the same one was subtracted from the number of injured persons. The number of 3 deadly casualties has been given by the local authority (mayor) and subsequently reported by most newspapers. However, the governor had given a different data: "The Donetsk region’s governor said 17 people were wounded in the attack, including women in labour"; no mention of killings. The most recent authoritative source is a statement by the UN Monitoring Mission: "Seventeen civilians, among them children and pregnant women, were injured. One injured woman was helped to deliver by Caesarean section soon after the attack, but neither she nor her baby survived" (25 March, here); same data reported here (only one dead - the pregnant woman). Maybe the mayor was wrong in reporting 3 casualties in the immediate aftermath of the bombing? If so, the final account of casualties would be 16 injured and one dead.

Marianna Vyshemirskaya

 * Please correct the surname.
 * She supports the Russian version, but she is under Russian control. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/kremlin-uses-video-report-to-cast-doubt-on-mariupol-hospital-bombing-sczlw3d5f Xx236 (talk) 09:26, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
 * The Times article you linked spells it Vyshemirskaya, but e.g. the Associated Press and the BBC spell it Vishegirskaya, and I seem to get more news results when I google "Vishegirskaya" than "Vyshemirskaya". Can you elaborate on why you think one version is correct and the other wrong? Endwise (talk) 11:06, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Quoted Medusa 'Podgurskaya (her married name is Vyshegirskaya)' - the lete~ter 'g' incorrectly comes from the maiden surname to the married one.Xx236 (talk) 05:41, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

 * I added a sentence about the interview a while ago according to what was said in this Associated Press article: https://apnews.com/article/russia-ukraine-europe-misinformation-bombings-a39d9438da3c55d691742229cc87b2a0. Is there anything else to mention about it? Endwise (talk) 12:33, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
