Ukrainian woman who threatened Russians with a knife sent to prison in Cyprus

The District Court of Lanta in Cyprus has convicted a 55-year-old Ukrainian woman who threatened Russians with a knife — the Cyprus Times.

The woman will spend six months in prison.

The incident occurred on August 22, 2022, during the celebration of Russian flag day.

That day, she was at home in the kitchen. When she heard a noise and saw that a pro-Russian rally was gathering, she ran out of the house with a kitchen knife.

In an interview with the Cyprus Daily Mail, Ukrainian woman Iryna Kryvous said that her brother had died in the war two months before the incident.
