Investigation Launched into Alleged Poisoning of Russian Journalist during TV Protest in France
French prosecutors have launched an investigation into the suspected poisoning of Russian journalist Marina Ovsyannikova, who staged an anti-war protest on state television after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Ovsyannikova, now living in France, reported feeling unwell after finding a powdery substance at her apartment door. While she claims to have been poisoned by Russian security services, there is currently no evidence to support this. Ovsyannikova recently received an eight-year prison sentence in absentia from Russian authorities for a separate protest held outside the Kremlin. Reporters Without Borders has confirmed the investigation and stated that no specific details are available at this time.
