Original Note:
For context, actual Nazis from the Rusich and Wagner groups are fighting alongside Russia in its war against Ukraine. Russian soldiers are regularly seen wearing Nazi symbols. Russia's operation in Africa is literally named after the Nazi 'Afrika Korps'. https://yalebooks.yale.edu/2023/07/07/the-wagner-group-explained/ https://www.rferl.org/a/russian-neo-nazis-fighting-ukraine/31871760.html https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-fighter-neo-nazi-symbols-medal-kill-ukraine-nationalist-2022-4 https://www.lemonde.fr/en/le-monde-africa/article/2023/12/17/africa-corps-russia-s-sahel-presence-rebranded_6352317_124.html
