<div>My name is Afina Filippova (born Boytsova; you can find me under this name on social media). I want to tell what happened to me end of October 2025.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I was forcibly deported from Germany to Estonia without warning, without any possibility to prepare, or even understand why this was happening.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>In the middle of the night, the police came to my home.

</div>

<div>When I began having a panic attack, they didn’t try to help they simply gave me tranquilizers, against my will.

</div>

<div>My body stopped responding, my movements became heavy, as if I had been plunged into a thick, viscous sleep.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Half-conscious, in a state of shock, I was taken out of my home and driven straight to the airport. I was wearing the pajamas I had been about to sleep in, a jacket, summer sneakers, and the trousers the police put on me. At the airport, they brought me into a screening room and told me to undress completely for inspection. It was cold and frightening.

</div>

<div>I wasn’t allowed to take anything with me, no belongings, no phone.

</div>

<div>I had only 10 euros in my pocket, which later went toward a train ticket to go to the refugee center.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>It was humiliating.

</div>

<div>I didn’t feel like a human being more like an object that was simply being transported from point A to point B.

</div>

<div>Before boarding, they gave me another pill, again without my consent.

</div>

<div>I remember the flight only in fragments: white clouds outside the window, cold light, and the police officers sitting next to me.

</div>

<div>I could barely speak. Inside, there was only emptiness.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>After landing, I was taken to a detention facility in Estonia.

</div>

<div>Since then, I have been trying to comprehend what happened, but the feeling of violence and helplessness does not leave me.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I am not sharing this to seek pity.

</div>

<div>I want people to know. I want no one else to go through something like this.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>While I was living in Germany, I was waiting for the government’s decision regarding assistance with obtaining a residence permit.

</div>

<div>I worked officially, at the BeeOne tattoo studio.

</div>

<div>In my free time, I painted it helped me recover and feel life again.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>But everything changed.

</div>

<div>I lost everything in a single moment.

</div>

<div>I don’t understand why no one warned me, why I wasn’t given even a little time to gather my things, to say goodbye, to understand that my life was about to be turned upside down.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I had been undergoing therapy with a psychotherapist I trusted.

</div>

<div>Now I will have to find a new specialist, tell the whole story again, open the most painful pages once more.

</div>

<div>It is difficult. It is painful.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>But I still believe that my voice matters.

</div>

<div>And if someone hears this story and stops to think, then it wasn’t in vain that I decided to speak.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I’m Sebastien Vitali, the fiancé of Afina and will give her all the money we have raised to help her rebuild a new life after this shocking tragedy.

</div>
<div>The money will serve mostly to pay lawyers fees! 
</div>
<div><br />
