You can't, the Russian Trading System (RTS) has been shut down since Feb 25th to keep it from crashing.

I looked into investing in Russia before this all happened, and investing in a tiny economy like Russia is a far worse deal than investing in the US.

Now you'd be looking at not only Russia's shitty ROI but the very real possibility your money would simply be seized by the Russian Government.

I just found this https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/1324.T?p=1324.T&.tsrc=fin-srch, a Russian ETF on the Tokyo exchange. I'm not sure how'd you go about buying it, but if you can it looks like you can get some exposure to the Russian economy.
