Russian authorities detained 18-year-old singer Diana Loginova, known as Naoko, after she finished a 13-day jail term for performing banned anti-war songs.
Russian authorities have detained 18-year-old singer Diana Loginova, known as Naoko, just after she completed a 13-day jail sentence in St. Petersburg, according to state media and supporters.
She was arrested for performing banned anti-war songs by exiled artists, including "Swan Lake Cooperative" and "You Are a Soldier," both linked to charges of discrediting the military and promoting unrest.
Loginova, a member of the band Stoptime, faces additional charges related to organizing unsanctioned gatherings and public order offenses.
The crackdown follows a broader pattern since Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine, targeting artists and activists.
She has not made explicit political statements but emphasizes music’s power.
