Activists are seen holding placards with pictures of Ukrainian film director Oleg Sentsov and other 70 Ukrainian political prisoners jailed in Russia, including the sailors taken in the Azov Sea conflict, during the protest. Ukrainian film director Oleg Sentsov, who is convicted to 20 years in prison for "plotting terrorist acts" in Russia-annexed Crimea, will be awarded for the 2018 Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought. The activists organised a rally at the embassy to remind the anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that there are still some 100 political prisoners in Russia and Crimea, more than a hundred prisoners in eastern Ukraine regions under Russian-backed separatists, and recently captured 24 Ukrainian navy sailors, which were seized by Russia during the Kerch Strait incident on November 25.
