Putin’s decision to escalate the war in Ukraine echoed throughout the country. Mothers, wives and children bid a tearful farewell in remote regions as officials – in some cases simple teachers – distributed draft notices to homes and apartment blocks.



Protests erupted across Russia on Wednesday night in response to Putin’s move, with 1,312 people arrested, according to OVD-Info.
