Interesting that the Russian arrest warrant states the birthplace of the prime minister of Estonia, @kajakallas , as “Estonian Soviet Socialist Republic.” As the Russian song goes, “Russia is where my tank can reach.” pic.twitter.com/Je3XpPVll6

A court in St. Petersburg sentenced Afghan journalist and activist Kobra Hassani to 2 years in prison in a case of attempted illegal border crossing. She now faces deportation to her home country.
In Afghanistan, Hassani worked as a human rights activist and TV journalist. She also had her own restaurant where she promoted reading culture. In 2021, she criticized the new Taliban regime and left for Ukraine. After the war broke out, she ended up in Russian territory at a migration center. The young woman complained of systematic bullying.
