A Russian court sentenced four journalists to lengthy prison terms for alleged links to Alexey Navalny's banned organization.
Accused of extremism for their journalistic work, which is considered collaboration with an outlawed group, they protest their innocence.
The convictions highlight Russia's ongoing suppression of dissent and independent media, intensified post-Ukraine invasion.
These harsh sentences underscore the perilous environment for journalists and freedom of expression within Russia today.
