In Moscow, four journalists face charges of involvement with the extremist-designated Foundation for Fighting Corruption, founded by opposition leader Alexei Navalny, who died in prison under suspicious circumstances. They maintain their innocence, claiming to report independently on the foundation. If convicted, they could face six years imprisonment. The case has drawn international attention, with their classification as political prisoners by activists. Delays in trial proceedings extend the timeline for a verdict, initially set for March 13. The trial remains largely closed to the public, limiting information on developments.
