In March this year, during the broadcast of a news program on Russian state television, a former employee who had been wanted by the authorities continued to protest against the Putin administration's invasion of Ukraine by entering the studio and appealing against the war, leaving Russia. It became clear.

Marina Ovsyannikova, who was an employee of the Russian state-owned Channel 1, entered the studio during a news program broadcast in March this year and held up a paper that read, "No war," to protest against Russia's invasion of Ukraine. It was noted for criticizing the invasion.



In July, he protested against the military invasion, was charged with spreading false information about the Russian army, and was placed under house arrest by the court. As such, he was wanted by the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs.



The state-run Russian news agency said on Monday, citing her lawyer, that Ovshannikova had already left Russia.



"She was forced to leave Russia. She is now being held in a European country," she said, according to her lawyer.



France's AFP news agency also quoted the same lawyer as saying that Ovshannikova left the country hours after leaving the house under house arrest with her daughter, adding that she was "still safe to speak in public". I'm not," he said.
