Valeria Kichigina
Valeria Kichigina is the editor of the Russian television channel Dozhd and has recently been in the news due to her prosecution for allegedly spreading 'false information' regarding the Russian military. The case marks a significant legal development as it is the first instance of such a charge not directly linked to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Kichigina faces scrutiny for a social media post concerning the 2008 Russia-Georgia war in which she stated that 20% of Georgia's territory is occupied by Russia.
