Russia's Supreme Court removed Yabloko from the State Duma election after granting a Rodina lawsuit alleging copyright violations, unofficial social-media ad funding and "extremist" material. Security forces then arrived at the party and threatened people there, warning they had "two minutes" before being taken away. A youth attempt to organize a peaceful rally was dispersed within minutes. Yabloko plans to appeal.
