Ukraine far-right militia tries to exploit martial law

The declaration of martial law in Ukraine has led far-right militias to capitalise on the situation for political gain.

The emergency measures by Ukraine’s President Petro Poroshenko have unsettled many people there and raised political tensions.

Far-right militias are trying to capitalise on it to gain more support, but they have also been accused of vigilante violence and activism.
