The Sunday Photos: Oborona Stands up for Kozlovsky

On Wednesday February 20th activists from Oborona staged a coordinated series of public acts of civil disobedience to protest the illegal induction of their leader Oleg Kozlovsky into the Russian armed forces for the purpose of intimidating and silencing their civil rights activities. Actions were staged in Vladikavkaz (shown above) as well as Tula, Murmansk, and Pskov. They blocked traffic and spray-painted graffiti and were supported by activists from Other Russia, SPS and Yabloko.
