A Russian blogger has been fined for “discrediting the Russian military” after describing a vivid dream he had about Volodymyr Zelensky, the Ukrainian president.
Ivan Losev, 26, of Chita, in Russia’s far-eastern Zabaykalsky region, was unaware his Instagram social media account was being monitored by officers from the country’s Federal Security Service.
He was fined 30,000 rubles (£390) after a local court convicted him of being in breach of a law that cracks down on dissent against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
