Viktoriya Hrytsenka (Haroshka), wife of children's coach Aliaksei Haroshka, was accompanying schoolboy footballers from Rechytsa during a trip to Gelendzhik (Krasnodar Krai, Russia). The bus was traveling along the Homiel — Bryansk highway when a drone hit it. Viktoriya died.
The woman was 44 years old. Her husband Aliaksei is most likely injured and in serious condition (the Rechytsa District Executive Committee reported a hospitalized coach-instructor).
Aliaksei has worked for many years at Children and Youth Sports School No. 2 of the Rechytsa district — his trainees regularly participate in various competitions and periodically win prizes.
