A Russian court has sentenced Nadezhda Buyanova, a 68-year-old pediatrician, to five and a half years in a penal colony for allegedly spreading 'false information' about the Russian military. The doctor was accused of criticizing Russia's war in Ukraine during a conversation with a patient. This case is part of a broader trend, as Russia's Military Cassation Court has revoked the rehabilitation of over 250 victims of political repression since 2020. The crackdown on dissent has intensified as the war in Ukraine continues, with authorities targeting individuals who speak out against the military or government policies.
