Ukraine war: Protester interrupts Russian TV news show
A Woman holding an anti-war sign ran onto The Set of a Russian evening news programme on the state-controlled Channel 1 on Monday evening.
The Sign , clearly visible behind the presenter, read " no war, stop The War , don't believe the propaganda, they are lying to you here".

She called on The Russian people to protest against The War , saying that only they could " stop the madness".
From The Moment Ms Ovsyannikova's identity became known, she has received dozens of comments on her Facebook page in Ukrainian, Russian and English, thanking her for her actions.
State-controlled televisionRussian television news has long been controlled by the Kremlin, and independent viewpoints are rare on all The Major channels.
But new laws introduced since The Invasion of Ukraine have made the media landscape even more draconian. Legislation passed earlier this month made it illegal to call the military action an " invasion" or to disseminate " fake" news about it.
State-controlled Russian media refer to The War as a " special military operation" and paint Ukraine as the aggressor, with a government run by neo-Nazis.
Several of The Remaining independent media outlets have stopped broadcasting or publishing after pressure from The Authorities , including the radio station Echo of Moscow and TV Rain - an online TV channel.
Others, like newspaper Novaya Gazeta, are attempting to report on The Situation without falling foul of the new censorship laws.
