Some references point to the fact that Kindzerska was born in Bakota, Ukraine. The little town of Bakota has officially disappeared in 1981 as it was submerged by waters of the Dniester Reservoir. In 2016, Kindzerska married an Azerbaijani athlete. They moved to Azerbaijan a year later and she has since represented this country.[1]
