On Monday evening, Ms. Ovsyannikova walked onto the set as the anchor was describing Russian talks with Belarus over how to soften the blow from Western sanctions, online videos show. She unfurled a sign with a Ukrainian and a Russian flag that said, in English, “No war” and “Russians against war.” In Russian, it said: “Stop the war. Don’t believe the propaganda. They’re lying to you here.”
The anchor Yekaterina Andreyeva, a veteran who has hosted the “Vremya” newscast for more than two decades, continued to read her script even as Ms. Ovsyannikova protested behind her. Within a few seconds, the show cut away from the set.
