Russian police charge woman in Crimea over daughter’s pro-Ukraine video

Clip of Russian and Ukrainian flags with angry-face and heart emojis is alleged to have ‘discredited’ army

Police in Russian-annexed Crimea have charged a woman with child neglect after her 10-year-old daughter allegedly posted a video online that “discredited” the Russian army, authorities said on Wednesday.

The video, shared on Russian Telegram channels, showed a girl choosing between Russian and Ukrainian flags, with an angry-face emoji next to the Russian flag and a heart emoji next to the Ukrainian one.
