Disappearance of High-Profile Russian Political Prisoners Raises Speculation

Six Kremlin critics, including Ilya Yashin and Oleg Orlov, have been moved to unknown locations, prompting theories of a potential prisoner exchange.

At least six prominent Russian political prisoners have been relocated without notice.
The transferred individuals include opposition figures and activists imprisoned for criticizing the Kremlin and Russia's military actions.
Lawyers and families have been left in the dark about the prisoners' new locations.
Observers suggest the moves might be part of an unprecedented large-scale prisoner exchange.
Past instances of sudden prisoner relocations in Russia have often led to weeks of lost contact.
