> Angelina, who lives in an unidentified Russian border city, says masked men in military uniforms abducted her two days after she rebuffed a serviceman in a parking lot. They searched her phone, questioned her about Ukraine and the Freedom of Russia Legion, and threatened electric-shock torture. She believes the incidents were linked, but reporters could not verify that independently.
