Description
A Ukrainian climber says she will summit Mount Everest carrying her national flag to rally global support for her country and boost morale among those fighting the Russian invasion.
Antonina Samoilova will be the only climber from Ukraine attempting to summit a Himalayan peak this season, and the 33-year-old said her endeavour was the only way she knew how to draw attention to the suffering of her compatriots.
"I climb Everest to support all the people of Ukraine, to support every warrior, every volunteer and all the people who were affected by this cruel war," she told AFP. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
