Berdychiv, UKRAINE – Mikhael Dudadiev, 39, known by his war name Benor, is in the small kitchen of a Soviet-era apartment, preparing Zhizhig Galnash, a traditional Chechen dish made of meat, pasta and garlic sauce. “It reminds me of the dishes from my childhood.” A thick brown beard frames his face, and his broad shoulders hint at his time on the front lines in Zaporizhzhia.
Never trust Russia in general no matter who rules it at the moment.
