Lmao wut. We couped their government and Crimea voted to leave ukraine (a few decades after ukraine couped their independent government).
Cope harder liberals.
I dunno what it is, but every time they (media) give a nickname to someone, its entirely a fabricated person. I noticed this in the CHAZ reporting and also in Haiti and Ukraine
Like, posting pictures, describing how this dude operates, describing what his house looks like, and describing what the outside of his lab is going to look like... there's no way this article is talking about a real thing.
All a drone needs to start looking for is "Dudes walking around places where 1) Russian forces have moved away from and 2) had indirect fire assets present", "houses near these places with piles of mortars, mines, and artillery shells", and "Buildings with Skull and Crossbones or Mad Max" spray painted on them to call in a glide bomb.
In the photos from that article, there's a picture of a patch that says "Sapper" in English instead of any of the common languages in Ukraine. I don't think there's anything explaining where this patch came from or who it belonged to. Definitely giving me some very weird vibes.

So kind of him to pick an English nick name.
we're all living in amerika so an action movie from 40 years ago is a cultural touchstone they could have, assuming this guy is an actual person
there's a russian language wikipedia page, anyway: Безумный Макс

Stalker would be a much better nickname
