The Azov Battalion takes its name from the Sea of Azov which is bounded by Ukraine and Russia.
You’ve more than likely seen images of these Ukrainian fighters on social media since the Russian invasion began in late February. They can be recognised by their tattoos and Nazi emblems on their uniforms. The neo-Nazi group are battling at the heart of the Ukrainian army, which has led to Vladimir Putin justifying Russian aggression by saying he wants to “denazify” Ukraine. Many see this as a pretext, especially when you consider that his Ukrainian counterpart Volodylyr Zelensky is himself Jewish.
Is the Battalion part of the Ukrainian army then? So are they really neo Nazis? What role is the Azov Battalion playing in the ongoing conflict? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !
