NEWSru.com (Russian semi-independent e-news website) just posted an article that ended up among top four news stories. The article tells of a story of a Russian nurse that was captured by Nazis and worked on their side as a "butcher". Anna Makarova had blood of around 1,500 people, including women and children. She was hiding for 30+ years until capture and execution in 1978.

It's a fine piece of writing about, what seemed to be, a common woman and I recommend it to everyone who knows Russian. This drama shows, once again, how different wartime is.

The story is available in Russian on NEWSru.com (RUS)
