Russians force water park entertainers in temporarily occupied Aluşta, Qırım, to apologise for dancing to Ukrainian songs

In temporarily occupied Aluşta in Qırım, Russians forced water park entertainers to apologise for dancing to Ukrainian music.

The video with the apology was published by the pro-Russian Crimean Telegram channel Krymskiy SMERSH.

Shortly before that, the Telegram channel posted a video of girls dancing to Verka Serdiuchka's song.

The entertainers were forced to apologise on camera for their allegedly "reckless act" and express support for Putin and the Russian military involved in the war against Ukraine.

After that, they were forced to sing a song with the words: "Vladimir Putin is a good man. A politician, a leader, and a fighter...".

In the temporarily occupied territories, Russian security forces continue to put pressure on the pro-Ukrainian population.

Pro-Russian Crimean blogger Aleksandr Talipov publishes personal data of Crimeans who support Ukraine on his social media. Because of his complaints, cases are being opened against residents of the peninsula for allegedly "discrediting" the Russian army.
