A court sentenced a Ukrainian woman to 12 years in prison for playing an anti-war speech over loudspeakers and releasing balloons with a white-blue-white flag into the sky in Moscow

According to the investigation, on May 8, 2023, the Ukrainian woman placed speakers in the window of her apartment and played a loud recording of an anti-war speech and the Ukrainian national anthem. The authorities considered this as spreading “fake news” about the military, under sections “b” and “d” of part 2 of article 207.3 of the Russian Criminal Code.
