Non lethal US Gear is starting to show up widely on soldiers fighting for Ukraine. Some of the Right Sector guys have Boots, backpacks, clothes, vests and these sorts of supplies that are standard US issue.
The progressive US & Russian media portray this group as fascists and neo-nazis and have documented some cases of racist behavior. The mainstream portray the group to as nationalists and ultranationalists. Probably people of both stripes in the group.
There are two forces fighting on the side of the Ukrainian government. One is the Ukrainian armed forces (UAF) and the other is made up of the volunteer battalions that have gone rogue and refused to be placed under the control of the UAF commanders. These battalions, like the Azov, are comprised mostly of the Right Sektor. The UAF, is being fueled with conscripts, since the regular UAF has been decimated by the insurgents.
