"...Having disembarked from the car, they [the Russian Federal troops] began to collect the dead and the wounded into their vehicles. They picked me up too. There I found out that my daughter Zara died, but the [Russian] snipers did not let me take her corpse. Zara's head was shuttered and her body was punched by pieces [of the shell]. However, they took my second daughter Daresh and provided first medical aid to her right in the car. They stopped the bleeding. Not only did it save her life, but also her wounded arm and leg remained intact."
