Nexus X HumectressA-79-year-old woman posed with an AK-47 in a photo-op set up by a neo-Nazi militia, showing just how surreal and complicated the conflict in Ukraine is.
A 79-year-old woman in Ukraine made waves in Western media over the weekend. She and other residents of Mariupol—a city in eastern Ukraine on the Sea of Azov—gathered to get basic military training. Valentyna Konstantynovska leaned over an AK-47 and, along with others, received basic training ahead of a possible Russian invasion. At first it seems like the typical jingoistic images a country that’s heading for war might produce, but complicating matters further is the fact that the soldiers conducting the training were members of the Azov Battalion, a far-right nationalist militia in Ukraine with ties to neo-Nazis.
