It all ended on Feb 24, 2022. It also became the place where Russian army coming from Belarus radioactive exclusion zone reach Kyiv from its Norther side that requires them to cross Bucha. It has been known Russian army has orders to open fire and kill civilians, including residential houses. Usually, all the civilians killed remain anonymous because they don\u2019t get into international news. Only such rare cases like the Mets are brought to wider audience by journalist and other resources that try to preserve the memory whose life has been interrupted because of Russian army conduct they always have been doing during the Soviet Union period, namely WW II. The Red Army did kill civilians with great pleasure and the whole war in Ukraine remains the Red Army conduct they employed when they went for 2<sup>nd<\/sup> time to conquer continental Europe in 1944.<\/p>\n<p>The fact the graves of Marina and Ivan Met are in a park indicates they were killed during evacuation by either artillery shell, mortar or MLRS cluster bomb. The fact is they died together \u2013 mother and son. That knowledge won\u2019t ease the pain because none of them deserved it and their deaths were necessary for the Russian Federation representatives to push Ukraine for submission due to heavy loss among the civilians.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s fortunate the graves are marked and we can associate them with the Mets as many don\u2019t have even that privilege.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The 42 y.o. single mother Marina Met and her 12 y.o. son Ivan Met got instantly killed on March 5, 2022 when a Russian army howitzer shell hit the brand-new residential area house courtyard and the roof of the building. Per the footage on in the tweet it the man who filmed the aftermath shows the grave are dug in the playground for the dogs. At least they have their own graves unlike the other who are buried in the mass grave like one in Bucha.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">On this video we see location where civilians Maryna Met and her 12year old son Ivan Met were buried near their house in Irpin.<\/p>\n<p>Reportedly they were shot by tank on March, 5 when they walked from apartments to taxi to flee in nearby village.<\/p>\n<p>Location: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/M9s8xSARti\">https:\/\/t.co\/M9s8xSARti<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/htE9JTdELr\">pic.twitter.com\/htE9JTdELr<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Olga Khudetska (@OKhudetska) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OKhudetska\/status\/1503395965558050821?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 14, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6608 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/valdef.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Bucas-kaevati-haudasid-2-paeva.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"631\" height=\"190\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lapatina_\/status\/1502197387028271106\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/lapatina_\/status\/1502197387028271106<\/a><\/p>\n<p>It took for the head of Bucha hospital 2 days to dig the mass grave and 2 days to prepare the dead.
