In Russia, a blogger who criticized the military command was detained.

In Russia, military blogger Yegor Guzenko, known as Thirteenth, was detained. This happened in Novopavlovsk during the City Day celebration. According to Russian media, several policemen pinned the blogger to the ground and used handcuffs, during which he shouted insults. After this, Guzenko reported on his Telegram channel that he does not know the reason for his detention and called for everyone to come protest for him, claiming he was beaten during the detention.

Earlier, the military blogger had two criminal cases initiated against him: one for saving a woman and child from an attacker in Saint Petersburg and the other for hooliganism when Guzenko himself was attacked. He decided to leave the country and went to the Special Military Operation (SMO) to fight and prove his virtue.

Guzenko criticized the actions of the Russian military leadership and spoke about the actual expenses of the occupiers. He also mentioned the "shell hunger" in the Russian army.
