Members of Pussy Riot, a Russian punk rock band known for political stunts to draw attention to societal issues, was detained in Qatar after trying to storm the field at the World Cup on Sunday, activists say.
The band members were looking to protest against Russia’s incursion into Ukraine, the imprisonment of Russian political activist Alexei Navalny and the oppression of women in Iran that have sparked protests throughout the Islamic Republic, according to Reuters.
Nika Nikulshina, an associate of the group, and Peter Verzilov, who is from Ukraine, were detained before they could get onto the field at Lusail Stadium, the Cinema for Peace Foundation told Reuters.

These were some of Hitlery’s favorite gals. Their trip to Qatar was probably paid for by the US Government.
