A Los Angeles woman has been sentenced to 12 years in prison in Russia for donating to Ukraine. Ksenia Karelina, 33, is a dual U.S.-Russian citizen who was arrested while visiting family in Russia. She donated $52 to a Ukrainian aid organization.

Because of Karelina’s dual citizenship, she was tried in Russia for treason. According to the Russian government, the money was used to finance the Ukrainian army.

Karelina was in the western Russian city of Yekaterinburg earlier this year and was arrested upon her arrival.

Karelina was born in Russia and immigrated to the United States in 2012. She also became a US citizen three years ago.
