The party 'Яблоко' is an opposition political organization in Russia that has submitted candidate lists for the State Duma elections, with 274 federal candidates and 137 in single-mandate districts. It faced procedural issues with its documentation, requiring corrections within a two-day deadline set by the Central Election Commission (ЦИК), which were ultimately resolved, allowing the party to officially begin campaigning. Several of its members, including former deputy chairman Maxim Krukov, have been imprisoned on charges related to spreading 'fake news' about the Russian military.
