The shape has been historically common all over central Europe; my grandfather received a medal like that for his service in the Austro-Hungarian army in WWI (I'm a late child, and yes, that old).

I know that the shape is not exclusive to the Wehrmacht, that is why I wrote "resembles". The Bundeswehr uses it in a different form. In any case, your point is valid. I shouldn't have mentioned it.

Is the video clip a hoax, i.e. is this not a clip from Ukrainian television? I provided a link to the video. This is the original article:
