The 2004 Eurovision winner put an icon and a flag in Mikhail Zhyzneuski's coffin.

She wrote on Facebook about the Belarusian, who was killed in Kyiv.

“Attended the memorial service in St. Michael's Church to pay my last respects to the guy killed in Hrusehvsky Street. Mikhail Zhyzneuski was wounded on January 22, the 60th day of protests.

I put an icon and a flag in the coffin.

There're plenty of people...

All are chanting “Hero”, because he is a hero!

What did he die for?

The bottom line is that I personally cannot accept the fact that the country is ruled by president Yanukovych or a someone like him,” Ruslana wrote.

The funeral of a participant of the pro-EU protests, Belarusian Mikhail Zhyzneuski who was killed by a gunshot wound in Hrushevsky Street, takes place in Kyiv today. Thousands of people came to pay their last tribute to the activist.
