As war drags on, Russia's pro-war camp turns its anger on the Kremlin
In late June, Russian soldier Alexander Lunin took to Instagram an emotional appeal addressed to Russian President Vladimir Putin in which he threatened to organize a military coup.
Unsurprisingly, Lunin was detained soon after publishing the appeal, eventually spending 11 days behind bars on charges of "demonstrating extremist symbols."
The incident shows a clear trend — dissatisfied Russian soldiers and members of the pro-war community, which for a period were seen as the backbone of Putin's regime, are emerging as one of the most vocal sources of criticism of the Kremlin.
