Briefly: Stanislav Kozlovsky, the director of Russian Wikimedia project (which supports the Russian Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikisource, etc.), has been declared a “foreign agent” by Russia. He has been forced to resign from his job at the Moscow State University. Following the event, Russian Wikimedia has decided to dissolve itself.

There’s a lot of less resourceful russian men who fled to escape the draft as well, generally to countries in Western Asia rather than in Europe. But they had better reasons to leave then most.
