The Russian official claimed that the opposition was behind the attack, justifying the call for a new crackdown on dissent.<\/p>\n<p>Although Putin has imposed draconian censorship laws to stifle criticism of the Russian military and anti-war activism, two incidents have exposed the growing discontent of the Russian people concerning the country&#8217;s involvement in the conflict in Ukraine. The first was a leaked recording of a conversation among supposed loyalists expressing anger at the war&#8217;s consequences. The second was the surfacing of a Russian defector who urged his former colleagues to expose the corruption around Putin.<\/p>\n<p>The Russian state has not yet responded to these incidents.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the Kremlin&#8217;s efforts to suppress anti-war activity and censor the media, the bombing that killed the pro-war blogger has ignited debates among Russian citizens about the country&#8217;s involvement in the bloody conflict in Ukraine.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>    <\/body><br \/>\n<\/html><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russian dissidents are carrying out \u201cexplosions and assassinations\u201d in defiance of the Kremlin&#8217;s war in Ukraine, according to a top ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin. \u201cTerrorism is back on our streets, in our cities,\u201d Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev complained on social media. \u201cHere\u2019s the creme de la creme of our non-systemic<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1909827,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[538],"tags":[18994,5692,4924,18119,4885,3965],"class_list":["post-1909826","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-washington-examiner","tag-assassinations","tag-blames","tag-dissidents","tag-explosions","tag-kremlin","tag-russian"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1909826","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1909826"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1909826\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1909827"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1909826"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1909826"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1909826"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
