"Avatar" is not a movie. That's what the army calls people with alcohol addiction. And, the military say, there are a lot of them in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The UP publication published a material with a photo of a soldier chained to a cross. Some were outraged, others - and these are mostly military - say that this is how they can punish for alcohol. It turned out that putting them in cages or tying them up is almost a common practice. Because no one wants to die because of a person with a weapon in inadequate condition.
