C. Church "Young teen martyred by Soviet soldier for resisting rape attempt beatified in Slovakia"

"Blessed Anna Kolesárová (14 July 1928 – 22 November 1944) was a Slovak Roman Catholic. Her life was cut short in 1944 when a Soviet Communist soldier killed her after she refused his sexual advances towards her.[1][2] Those who knew her best described her as being a modest and simple girl who attended Mass each morning and assumed care of the household following her mother's death in her late childhood.[3][4]

Her beatification process opened in 2004 and she became titled as a Servant of God upon the cause's launch. The process culminated on 6 March 2018 after Pope Francis confirmed that she had died "in defensum castitatis" (meaning to preserve herself as a virgin) and had confirmed her beatification.[3][1] The beatification was celebrated on 1 September 2018 in Slovakia.
