Russia’s anti-Putin underground movement vows overthrow of “dictator” by force

An underground anti-Putin movement in Russia is making bold claims, saying it plans to overthrow President Vladimir Putin by force. According to Metro, the group describes itself as a growing resistance network made up of activists, defectors, and insiders who believe the Kremlin can no longer be changed from within. It insists that only direct action can end what it calls authoritarian rule.

The movement reportedly says frustration inside Russia is rising, especially over the ongoing war in Ukraine, economic pressure, and tightening political control. Supporters claim they are building networks both inside and outside the country, though independent verification of their strength remains unclear.

While the Kremlin has long dismissed similar opposition groups as fragmented or foreign-backed, this latest declaration highlights the continuing undercurrent of resistance and deep political tension inside Russia’s power structure, even as Putin maintains a tight grip on leadership.
