A Rebel Beauty Pageant: Russian Roulette (Dispatch 98)

Jesus fucking christ on a pogo stick they have all gone nuts in the East LOL

Published on Mar 9, 2015
To celebrate International Women's Day on March 8, the so-called Donetsk People's Republic (DNR) in eastern Ukraine held a unique beauty pageant — where the contestants were all female rebel fighters.

VICE News correspondent Simon Ostrovsky attended the pageant and spoke with the contestants who, in the midst of ongoing fighting, said they are proud to be battling for independence in the region.
