A Ukrainian woman who became a sniper in the fight against pro-Russian separatists in Ukraine has raised eyebrows by posting a series of glamorous photographs of herself on Facebook.

Amina Okueva, who also works as a surgeon in the city of Odessa, ditched her military fatigues for a stunning blue and grey dress and matching hijab for the photo shoot.

Amina, who is originally from Chechnya, fights alongside her husband Adam Okuev, who was once accused of organising an assassination attempt on Vladimir Putin.

Before the war, she was an active in the Euromaidan movement before training as a sniper with a battalion in the Donbass region. 

The photoshoot of the fighter shows off her more feminine side, away from the tough conditions on the frontline.

Posing in an elegant blue dress and a neatly wrapped hijab, Amina looks stunning in a series of images taken in the Ukrainian countryside.

The released photographs quickly went viral, attracting more than 8,000 likes on the social networking site.

Some users commented in what they saw as a drastic change from Amina's usual military-driven look - but admired her beauty and bravery.

One user commented: 'The steppe, the night, your traditions, clothing, all in one shot', another added: 'Well, certainly better than in uniform! A beautiful woman! It is a pity that instead of living a normal life and raising children, you have to take up arms.'

Amina said she had not expected the photos to provoke such a reaction.

She said: 'I did not expect that people would like it so much. To be honest, I do not feel too comfortable in such outfits.'

'I am really glad that you like it, my dear friends and followers.'

Amina said that a case of 'spring depression' had inspired her to pose for the photoshoot, adding that looking nice in lovely surroundings was the ideal cure.
