BBC

The hashtag "No To War" has been trending on Russian-language social media, including the profiles of a number of Russian celebrities.

The hashtag and caption have been shared approximately 208,000 times on Instagram, sometimes accompanied by a black square. The posts come from Russia and the Russian diaspora, as well as Russian-speaking populations of former Soviet republics.

“Fear and pain. NO TO WAR," read a Thursday post from Ivan Urgant, a popular late-night talk show host.
