The Kremlin may be retaliating against anti-war Russian celebs abroad — even trying to get countries to send them back, reports say

• A popular Russian rock band was arrested in Thailand and risked being deported to Russia.
• Analysts have said it's part of Moscow's effort to shut down dissent reaching the Russian public.
• One Russian comedian said Russia was pursuing a "maniacal persecution of dissenting artists abroad."

Russian President Vladimir Putin may be expanding his crackdown on dissent at home to expats living abroad — apparently targeting Russian celebrities who have spoken out against the Ukraine war in places like Thailand and Indonesia.
