Description
The family of a 23-year-old Zambian student, Lemekani Nyirenda, who died on the front line fighting for Russia in Ukraine, holds a memorial in Lusaka. Family members broke down as they filed past the coffin of Lemekani Nyirenda at Lusaka's Baptist church, where he was a regular worshipper before moving to Russia to study nuclear engineering. Nyirenda was recruited by Russia's Wagner mercenary group last year while serving a nine-and-a-half year jail term for a drug offence and sent to fight in Ukraine. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
