Russia has sentenced a resident of the Siberian region of Krasnoyarsk to 7 1/2 years in prison for posts he made criticizing Soviet dictator Josef Stalin as well as the invasion of Ukraine.
An investigation by Amnesty International and the Associated Press concluded that Russia bombed the Mariupol theater, killing dozens to hundreds of civilians, including children. Russia has denied targeting the theater, blaming it on Ukrainian artillery. Experts said the damage was consistent with a heavy bomb delivered by plane.
It is not the first time Orlovsky has been sentenced for his views on the war. In March, he was handed a three-year prison term for extremism for calling for the death of "Russian occupiers" in Ukraine.
