Four Russian journalists are currently on trial in Moscow, facing charges of involvement with an extremist group linked to the late Russian opposition politician Alexei Navalny. The journalists, who have denied the accusations, were arrested earlier this year and are now facing up to six years in prison if convicted.
The trial, being conducted behind closed doors, is part of the ongoing crackdown on dissent in Russia following the country's invasion of Ukraine. The Kremlin has targeted opposition figures, independent journalists, and rights activists, leading to hundreds of arrests and forcing many to flee the country.
