prompting the hobbling old lady to say "glory" as response to "glory to ukraine" may not have been the fairest thing they could have done

Eh, there didn't seem to be any sort of implied threat or imbalance of power in the little snippet presented here. The old ladies approached the soldiers and asked for a lift, and the soldiers seemed honestly apologetic that they had no room to provide one.

It's quite interesting seeing the "depoliticization" of the general Russian population having this effect, when the Ukrainians moved in a surprising number seem to be just shrugging and going "new management, I guess." Will be interesting to see how the occupation goes if it's long-term.
