A man opened fire at a Siberian military recruitment office on Monday — the latest sign of unrest within Russia after President Vladimir Putin announced a military mobilization affecting up to 300,000 reservists from around the country.
At least 100 people were arrested Sunday in Russia’s southwestern region of Dagestan, according to the human rights group OVD-Info, as protesters gathered in the regional capital, Makhachkala, to condemn the war in Ukraine. In a speech Sunday night, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky responded to the protests by urging Russians to “fight to ensure that your children are not sent to die.”
