Details: Activists from the Vesna (Spring) movement are encouraging Russians to protest in the centres of their cities at 19:00. One of the protest slogans is "No to mogilizatsiya!" [a wordplay meaning that mobilisation will lead to a lot of graves; "mogila" means "grave" in Russian].

Quote: "Thousands of Russian men, our fathers, brothers and husbands, will be thrown into the meat grinder of war. What will they die for? Mothers and children will be weeping, and for what?"
