When turn on phone and activate it turned out not include no camera (either front or rear) iPhone 5

Hello!

January 8, 2013, I bought iPhone 5, being a tourist trip to the USA. Phone was bought without a contract with the operator for international use. Immediately after the purchase went to Russia. When you turn on the phone and activate it turned out that does not include no camera (either front or rear). When you contact an authorized service center for Apple (found via website Apple.com) I was denied warranty, based on the fact that Apple does not offer international warranty. Is this true? What to do and how to get a repair / replacement iPhone? By mail? Or I'll have to go to the U.S. to get warranty service?
