We performed a reverse image search of the video’s keyframe and found it in a report by the Russian media outlet RT from 28 September 2021. It said the incident took place on 21 September in Nizhnevartovsk, Russia.
A man, Bakhriddin Azimova, assaulted a doctor who inspected his wife and complimented her. The report quoted the woman as saying that the dermatologist had dubbed her skin “beautiful.”
