A Russian anti-war activist has been sentenced to seven years in a penal colony for replacing supermarket pricing labels with anti-war messages.

Sasha Skochilenko, 33, an artist from St Petersburg, has been in detention since April Last Year .

She admitted taking part in activism shortly after The War began.

Her lawyers pleaded for her acquittal, saying that chronic illnesses she suffers from mean she is At Risk of dying in prison.

Weeks after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Ms Skochilenko protested by replacing supermarket labels in a St Petersburg supermarket with anti-war messages, a small act called for by a feminist collective.

The Replacement labels read: " Russian forces have destroyed 80% of Mariupol. For what? " and: " People I know are hiding from Russian bombs in the metro. None of them are Nazis. Stop The War . "

Ms Skochilenko admitted the charges.

In her closing statement, The Artist struck a defiant tone, asking The Court : " How Little Faith does our prosecutor have in our state and society if he thinks that our statehood and public security can be ruined by five small pieces of paper? "

" Say what you Want - I was wrong, or I was brainwashed, " She Said . " I will stand by my opinion and my truth. "

Skochilenko was convicted of " discrediting The Russian army" under repressive laws adopted in The Wake of The Invasion .

The legislation effectively criminalises all anti-war activism.

The Trial lasted a year and a half, apparently because it was one of The First to be brought under the new laws.

" At first, The Investigation took a long time. Prosecutors needed to find some evidence somewhere, " said her lawyer Yana Nepovinnova.

Sasha Skochilenko's sister Anna told The Bbc that her sibling was " a symbol of everything the [Russian] authorities hate".

" She is artistic, fragile, lesbian, has a Ukrainian surname, " Anna Skochilenko said.

She Said she was terrified that her sister's chronic health conditions meant there was a risk of her dying in prison. as well as a heart defect that causes her heart to stop beating for two to three seconds.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has overseen an unprecedented crackdown on domestic opposition in parallel with the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. The laws used to convict Ms Skochilenko have been used to target scores of critics of his rule.

Last month, who protested against The Invasion of Ukraine live on state TV, was convicted to 8. 5 years in jail In Absentia .

In April, was sentenced to 25 years for his criticism of The War .
