In 2021, when Muratov co-received the #NobelPeacePrize, he dedicated the award to #NovayaGazeta’s “fallen” journalists who “gave up their lives for their profession”.
Since 2000, Novaya Gazeta has seen six of its journalists and contributors killed, including investigative reporter #AnnaPolitkovskaya, who was shot dead in #Moscow on President Vladimir #Putin’s birthday. #Ukraine
#Russia adds #Nobel prize-winning journalist #DmitryMuratov to list of ‘foreign agents’

"Anna Politkovskaya, Russian journalist and human rights activist. She would have been 65 today. Anna Politkovskaya was shot dead in the entrance of her own building on 7 October, 2006 - on Putin's birthday."

@Renegade_GDI @benb #AnnaPolitkovskaya I do miss her writing, she sometimes wrote for our local paper too, of course articles were translated. She was the kind of journalist that #Russia needs to get past the glorifying of mass murderers.
For me Ukraine look more like WWII Poland than what WWI France look like, much of that destruction was limited to the artillery reach, which in WWII you also got rockets with crappy precision and a leadership that didn't care about civilians.
Il 7 ottobre 2006 veniva uccisa #AnnaPolitkovskaya, giornalista russa nota per i reportage sulla Novaya Gazeta.
La sua morte, oggi, ci appare come un monito al processo di consolidamento del potere da parte di #Putin, che non tollera voci libere e dissenso.
