The Russian army invaded almost five months ago Ukraine, with Russia speaking of a “special military operation” aimed at the “demilitarization” and “de-Naziization” of its neighboring country. Kyiv and the West stress that Moscow started an unprovoked war.

Several Americans have volunteered to fight alongside Ukrainian forces, ignoring Washington’s warnings. An American citizen, who had joined the ranks of foreign volunteer fighters, was killed in combat last May while trying to help Ukrainians repel Russian invaders.
