A repeat of the 2018 action by the band members failed.
In Qatar, members of the group Pussy Riot were detained by security forces while trying to run onto the soccer field during the final meeting of the World Cup 2022. This was reported by Reuters.
The attempt, which was supposed to be a repeat of the 2018 action, involved Pyotr Verzilov , Veronika Nikulshina and an unnamed activist.
It is reported that the protesters wanted to draw attention to the situation in Ukraine, the imprisonment of Alexei Navalny and restrictions on women's rights in Iran. This was reported by the organization Cinema for Peace.
