Natalia Pushkash
Biography
A resident of Ukraine’s Kherson region, she was prosecuted on charges of making public calls to terrorism and engaging in activities deemed to be against the security of the Russian Federation. The case was based on her expressed approval of the killing of military correspondent Vladlen Tatarsky, as well as her calls for Russian servicemen to surrender and hand over military equipment to the Ukrainian army in exchange for a reward.
On 17 February 2026, Pushkash was sentenced to six years in a general-regime penal colony.
