Russian police detain hundreds at anti-war protests across the country 

Bravo, brave Russian people

Heroes. They know they will be arrested, but did it because it was the right thing to do. Thank you brave Russians. You might well end up stopping ww3.

Thank you all for the support. We're sorry for doing so little. We still weak, and our people are scared. It's hard to imagine the amount of poverty in Russia, but trust us. You can't survive in Russia without a job, reputation, connections - everything you'll definitely lose after participation in such protests. That's how the government has been teaching us how to behave. It's hard to believe, but we can't vote. We've got an illusion of elections, in which Putin and the government have always won. We protested. They laughed. The government has changed our Constitution, imprisoned all the opposition, increased the amount of police. To protect themselves from us. We protested. They laughed. We still protest. And they still laugh. Because... What have we got? Nothing. That's why your support is important to us. Most of us have friends and families in Ukraine. So we want our voices to be finally heard. STOP THE WAR!

I am Russian and I live in the city from the footage of this issue. I would like to say that the people, like the government, do not have any levers of pressure on one person. We have laws that do not allow us to speak openly about different situations. We are against war, we are against despotism and we are concerned about sanctions. We didn't choose - this is what everyone needs to know about our situation

My respect goes out to those Russian people who don't want war.

These wonderful people are the only ones that can stop Putin without military intervention. The world is with you.

It takes a lot more courage to protest in a dictatorship during wartimes than in any other country, my respect for the Russian people

It’s shocking to see how a few hundred politicians gamble with the lives of the hole planet.

God take care of brave Russian who protest against the invasion

There is so many more of us, than there is of them. Stand united people of the world.

So sad I'm praying for both nations to heal and come to peace.

Doing the right thing will end you up in prison. So saddening..

Give medals to these people. They stand up for humanity! ☮️

Now These are True Russians Standing up for Their Own Beliefs Much Respect from Canada 🇨🇦

Media isn't calling these people nazis, they aren't calling them insurrectionists, and the comments are 100% positive and stand with them as it should be. Why is it when its here in Canada happening we are divided, but there its "standing up for freedom and democracy"

God bless all the people in Russia who are standing up for peace, your bravery shows the world that you do not want this war. I am so proud of all of you. May you all remain safe.

These people are brave, they have all my respect and prayers

What a step backwards for humanity. This war is so wrong.

See what Authoritarianism looks like Canada? It looks like Canada.

Whoever sits quietly has blood on his hands

How sad, I can't believe Russia are doing this, my heart breaks for the Russian people and the Ukrainian x

This is how a tyrant treats his own peacefully protesting citizens. Shame! Shame!

Respect for my free thinking brothers and sisters goes out from germany. We see that the war in the ukraine is from the russian oligarchy not from the people living in russia.

They cant arrest the whole country if you stand together

I cant believe their police and army think it's right. poor people afraid to speak freely. absolute shame.

As russian I just wanna say we dont want a war! And im really shocked that Putin did it! Such a shame! Ukraine, we are so sorry!!!

People should not be afraid of their government ! The government should be afraid of the people !

Prayers and hope from 🇦🇺

Respect to the Russians that are human and have a soul

Thank you to those brave Russians for standing against this war! Thank you for your courage!!! It saddens me to see so many arrested for just speaking their mind! Peaceful protesting should be allowed in every country.

Standing up to the oppressor knowing you’ll get arrested, respect

Collapse please the jails, there is no enough room for everybody if 1 million take the streets

God bless this russians. Atleast we have russian people who want to live in peace. I feel sorry for this brave russians

My heart goes out to the Russian People protesting against War. They don't need this they experienced the misery and hardship of it during the second world war. Let's hope cool heads prevail in this. My heart goes out to the Ukrainian people too. I hope this can stop and be resolved. Peace for the Entire World. Regards from 🇨🇦

So people are put in jail foe protesting against war . This is so insane

This is the type of protest I support.

Now this is what fighting for freedom really means

It's crazy we live in a world where a few numbers decides if the majority of the world lives or dies.

Anyone who does this to your own people should not be in power

Peaceful protesters of any country shouldn’t be treated this way, even more so when they’re protesting against war. So sad to watch

These protests are such an important reminder that Pukin' DOES NOT represent the typical Russian citizen. These people know what's at stake and even more importantly, what the personal repercussions will likely be. And yet they still stand up for what's right. Bravo and spasibo!

Those people remain to do the right things.

Seeing this authoritarian violence fills me with so much rage!

What happens to them after they are arrested? That's what's scary!

Putin hasn't moved on from what has happened to the soviet union, everyone has moved on but him. He bent on restoring it, but the humiliation is already there and putin will fall and crumble like it did

My god ... Be safe Ukraine,it's so unfair when one man's ambitions and actions takes that many peoples life. Russia needed to change their president long time ago...

NO MORE WAR

The fact the police dont stand against the government is sickening

Stay strong and powerfull all anti-war Russians. Pozdrav from a Croatian.

These are heroes. Me and my grandmother are tearing up watching. Love and prayers from the USA 🇺🇸❤️ We stand with you. Putin khuylo!!

Its time for the police to turn against the police state

This is how they treated their own standing up for human rights, imagine the unseen images we’ve missed out there.

Love people who speak up. Respect. God will reward you.

They are heroes!

why wouldn't global show our own protests with the same respect they show Ukraine

We praise the courage of the Moscow residents to express their intention to oppose the war. It is all the citizens who suffer in the war! Find ways for anti-war people around the world to express unity.

People are screaming for peace and they treating them like criminals .

God bless Russia and it's peace loving citizens... We can all live together without war and people dieing unnecessarily🙏🌍🙏

So brave to speak out against such an aggressive government. Heartbreaking to see these protesters be treated such a horrible way. Even children are getting arrested just because they lay flowers in the Ukrainian embassy. Peace must get a chance ☮️💙💛🇺🇦🤬😭

Brave Russians standing for peace. I’m 🙏🏻ing for your safety and that you do not give up.

This is the work of a tyrant and he must be opposed.

Praying for the Russian protesters fighting against the war in Ukraine. Support from Canada. 🇺🇦🙏🇷🇺🙏🇨🇦

They don't be afraid to say the truth. Stop the war.

War is only real if chaos breaks out on both sides ...

Taking one from Trudeau's playbook

These are the true brave protesters that deserves recognition and support.

It is not to be demonstrated, but to be revolutionized as in 1917.

Here from the U.S. sorry you people for peace are going thru this. My prayers are also for peace. God bless

Good bless Ukraine and Russian protesters

This protest is 100 percent legitimate and fair to be doing what they are doing, this is such a terrible situation. I cant in any way understand how any of these officers can go around detaining people for protesting a war. That's a very reasonable thing to not want to happen. We are with you amazing and courageous people who are protesting this conflict

We love you Russian friends! WE LOVE YOU, you are not the enemy, The corrupt tiny FEW above the law are the enemy, we need to take our world and give it back to the people

How could the police stand with such tyranny

The good people of Russia speak out against bloodshed! God help the people of Ukraine and Russia, in Jesus' Holy name. It's not the citizens who want this war.

The Real Freedom Fighters.

These Police men need to show their faces, they’re arresting their own brothers and sister. Their own people!!

All of these people on the street are not just protesting, they come to the streets ready to go to jail or even be killed, this is not that easy, everyone is scared now. My respect and support.

I love these people. They have everything to lose by standing up to Putin.

These protesters are the real hero's on freedom.

If they can do that to their own people they will stop at nothing to obtain the Ukraine.

Yes no war, yes no war. We all pray for the protesters.

Leave them alone

Freedom of speech: Putins version

The world is slowly taking away our rights and opinions to anything

So it is crime to speak out for something your government doing you don't like.

The way Russia is treating its own people seems like the world needs to not only save Ukraine but also save the people of Russia from the Russian regime as well. This is so much like the start of Hitler's move its unreal.

Much respect and love to the peace loving Russian people from peace loving Canadian people.

ALWAYS, stand your ground, always stand up for your beliefs.

I wonder if these people will ever be seen again after being detained like that…

The People are standing up against governments around the world. Lets keep at it! ✊🏼

No More War! No More War! Spread Peace.. Becvause our Family and Friends suffers...

The human rights and the rights of the people will never go ignored!

It’s the sign of country collapse

Can't arrest them all!

I respect theses Russian people

Pray without ceasing for peace on Earth 🙏 Blessed are the merciful.God will make a way 🙏

Thank God for you protesters!! Thank you for your compassion for those who are suffering right now! Thank God for you standing up for what is right!

God bless the Russian people ❤

Internal Revolution in Russia could change the game. Trouble within Russia would have to be quelled fast or Putin will find he has two fronts to contend with.

At times of tension country population must be with it's country

I'M SPEECHLESS! FOR ALL THE VIRTUE SIGNALING WE DO HERE IN OUR SAFE AND CODDLED DEMOCRACY, THIS LEVEL OF BRAVERY IS TRULY UNIMAGINABLE.
