Naseri, formerly an interpreter for the United States Marine Corps in Afghanistan, poses for a portrait in the home of his father-in-law in Kabul. Naseri moved to the home of his wife's father because his work with the Americans in the past was well known and frowned upon by residents from his village. Naseri was actually issued a U.S. Visa in 2017 but was turned around in Dubai because, he was told, his visa had been approved by the State Department but not by the Department of Homeland Security.

Pictured: Alexander Garms-Rizzi (in mask) at Bulford Military Court Centre A British Army soldier who went AWOL for six months to fight in the Ukraine conflict has been locked up after a judge ruled that his actions risked dragging Britain into a war with Russia. Royal Welsh Fusilier Alexander Garms-Rizzi was deployed to Estonia when he went missing from NATO's Operation Cabrit and sent his unit a message admitting he had crossed the border to join pro-Ukrainian forces. A court martial heard that by operating as a 'rifleman' alongside Ukrainian militia the 21 year old had defied orders, created a security risk and had he been captured 'the potential harm... is difficult to understate'. Sentencing Fus Garms-Rizzi to 12 months in a military detention centre, Judge Advocate General Darren Reed said: "The order not to go to Ukraine could not have been clearer. The order was there to protect British forces and the state from being dragged into the conflict." SEE OUR COPY DETAILS ?? George Lithgow/Solent News & Photo Agency UK +44 (0) 2380 458800
