Very brave woman protests in Yekaterinburg, Russia against the war, sews her mouth shut




Nadezhda Sayfutdinova was detained in Yekaterinburg in Russia after she sewed her mouth shut with needle and thread and went out into the street with a poster against a war.


I hope she gets out of jail soon, so courageous.
