@Тост Yes, this is an Orthodox monastery in Belarus. It says in the news that the fair in England is a Christmas fair. On the monastery website, here are some Christmas souvenirs: https://lavka-obitel.ru/rozhdestvenskoe.html

Today, the Christian Visions group has learned that the City Council of Winchester, England has decided that the St. Elizabeth Monastery cannot participate in the Christmas market in their city - because of their support for the war. Various civil society organisations have asked the town council to ban the monastery's participation in the Christmas market. As we wrote earlier, St Elisabeth's Monastery supports Russian aggression against Ukraine not only on the level of propaganda, but also participates in financing outfits, including military ones, for Russian soldiers fighting in Ukraine. https://t.me/christianvision/2965

Pskov priest Aleksandr Tsyganov, who came under fire along with priest Mikhail Vasiliev, died in hospital today http://www.patriarchia.ru/db/text/5979337.html

Ten years ago a funny thing happened which, in my humble opinion, deserves a mention in this thread. So, in 2012, Medvedev was playing the role of President of Russia and Putin was already preparing to succeed him. For propaganda purposes they launched the slogan "Putin works!" and set up a website "ЧтоСделалПутин.РФ" (WhatDidPutin.RF). On 14 February 2012 the website reported that Putin had met with the former governor of Chelyabinsk Region, Pyotr Sumin. The website contained a transcript of the meeting, where the state of metallurgy in the region was discussed. In fact, Pyotr Ivanovich Sumin had been dead for a year by then (cancer). The news had been moved to a different address, stripped of the date, and replaced with "Moscow and the Moscow Region" instead of "Chelyabinsk Region". The incident received significant coverage in the blogosphere of Russia. https://www.newsru.com/russia/21feb2012/sumin.html
