It appears (from what I can tell in this article):

1. There is a real woman who got on Russian state video denouncing the war

2. She made a video ahead of time saying she was going to do it

3. She was detained

4. Someone made an account impersonating her

5. The impersonating account then spoke “as her”, continuing to say things denouncing the war.

This guy is saying that it was easy to tell that it was an impersonation.
