Most of the media in Russia today did not cover the event that happened yesterday evening on the state television "Channel 1", where the journalist of this television entered the news studio protesting against the war in Ukraine.

Only one independent newspaper has put the journalist's banner on its front page, but without the words written on it, because in Russia this is a criminal offense.

We do not know where the journalist named Marina Ovsyannikova is, who was detained last night.

Her lawyer is said to have tried to find her at all the police stations near the TV center, but apparently he has not been able to find her.

A state news agency has just reported that a preliminary investigation has been launched against her.

We assume she will appear in a Moscow court at some point this morning, but we'll have to wait and see. /Adapted from BBC for Labyrinth
