New Fatal Attacks on Russian Anti-fascists
Last week was marked by a new wave of neo-Nazi violence against young antifascists, with one murder in Irkutsk and one in Moscow. On October 8, 2008, in Irkutsk, 16-year-old Olga Rukosyla was killed by three young men in Nazi-skinhead gear. According to eyewitnesses, they approached the young girl, asked her a question and yanked her arm. Olga gave an angry answer, and then the attackers knocked her down and began kicking her.
