       She had previously also worked for Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny's Anti-Corruption Foundation.

       Baulina "died under fire in Kyiv" while "filming the destruction" caused by Russian shelling, The Insider said on its website.

       Another civilian was killed alongside her in the strike and two other people were wounded, it added.

       Baulina had worked for Navalny's group until it was declared an extremist organisation last year.

       After Russia invaded Ukraine a month ago, Baulina filed several reports from Kyiv and Lviv in western Ukraine for the outlet.

       "The Insider expresses its deepest condolences to Oksana's family and friends," it said.

       Baulina's colleagues took to social media to mourn her loss.

       Vladimir Milov, who worked with her at Navalny's group, vowed to bring those responsible to justice.

       "I will never forget her and to all those who are responsible for her death I promise that they won't get away with (only) a trial and a verdict," Milov said on Twitter.
