They were declared foreign agents in Russia at the end of last year. They (no idea how many or which) left in August:

In a tweet, Pussy Riot... said that three members of the collective—Alexander Sofeyev, Anna Kuzminykh and Veronika Nikulshina—had left Russia “to take a break from constant arrests for a second”.
