About Olga Skobeleva
Olga Nikolayevna Skobeleva was a Russian philanthropist and hospital organizer. Olga and her family were strongly tied to the Imperial Russian Army; her husband was Russian general Dmitry Ivanovich Skobelev, while Olga was the mother of Russian general Mikhail Dmitrievich Skobelev and the head of the Bulgarian Red Cross. She was killed in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, when her carriage was ambushed by bandits in 1880. A monument was later built on the site of her murder.
