Description
A Moscow court orders the arrest of a theatre director and a playwright on charges of "justifying terrorism" over an award-winning play about Russian women recruited online to marry radical Islamists in Syria. Director Yevgeniya Berkovich and author Svetlana Petriychuk were placed in custody until July 4. The case comes as Moscow has launched an unprecedented crackdown on dissent at home while troops fight in Ukraine and much of the Russian arts community has fled the country.
