A young woman was brutally attacked inside a crowded Kyiv metro train in Ukraine on July 17 after she allegedly shouted pro-Russian slogans like "Glory to Russia." Viral footage shows a man repeatedly slapping and kicking her as bystanders watched. Ukrainian media claimed she provoked the assault with anti-Ukrainian remarks. Russian outlet RT accused Ukraine of hypocrisy, saying the crowd justified the violence. Police in Kyiv have launched an investigation to identify everyone involved. Authorities urged citizens to report crimes to police rather than take matters into their own hands. The woman was eventually forced off the train.
