    Is this real? And why would they do that?
    There isnt much info in this article about when it happened or anything much.

      And that is the question that should make a person skeptical of this article. You would think that a comment from the Ukraine government would have been included or at least a little more research.

    Look, there are some troubling allegations of nazi sympathies among the ukranian military. If they’re true, A. I want to know about them, and B. That doesn’t discredit the ukranian people or army generally. If there’s some nazis in there, this article does nothing to prove that. It is an allegation with absolutely no substantiation from sources which I personally have reason to believe have every incentive to lie about this to discredit ukraine and support for ukraine. No names, places, images? Who was involved? What base? What were the circumstances of discovery? Of confrontation? Of deportation? Three paragraphs of vague imputation, nothing more.
