Russian security forces detained former soldier and volunteer Alexander Lunin after he released a video accusing some commanders of violent conduct toward troops and warning of a potential mutiny against the Kremlin. The clip, which was widely shared on Russian social media, reportedly garnered millions of views.
Following Lunin’s arrival in Moscow, authorities arrested him and conducted a search of his home in the Voronezh region, seizing electronic equipment. Family sources say he has been formally detained for 11 days, though officials have not yet disclosed the specific charges.
