The Kyiv District Court of Simferopol remanded four Crimean Tatar women: Esma Nimetulayeva, Elviza Aliyeva, Nasiba Saidova, and Fevziye Osmanova, in pretrial detention for two months. The hearing was held behind closed doors, with limited access for support.

In the Stavropol village of Donskaya Balka, after a denunciation, the head of the kindergarten Svetlana Shelar, who spoke out against the war with Ukraine, was fired. Now local “public activists” demand that law enforcement agencies conduct a thorough investigation into the woman.
“The dismissal of Svetlana Shelar is not enough for us. I think that when insults are heard against our defenders who are dying, while I see a peaceful sky every day, I cannot pass by such situations, ”said Alexei Kurochkin, a public figure.
According to State Duma deputy Alexander Khinshtein, who oversees this issue, Svetlana Shelar was fired after the personal intervention of the governor of the Stavropol Territory, Vladimir Vladimirov, and her statements are being checked by the security forces.
The woman was born in Ukraine, her sons are now defending their country from Russian troops.
