Russian newspaper Novaya Gazeta hit by 'chemical attack'
2021-03-16
[EuroNews] Investigative Russian newspaper Novaya Gazeta said Monday that an unidentified chemical substance was found at the entrance of its offices in Moscow.

"In the morning, a chemical attack was carried out on the building where our editorial office is located," said Novaya Gazeta editor in chief Dmitry Muratov in a statement.

"We can't walk between floors or go to the street," he added.

The chemical substance is currently under analysis by Russia's security service FSB, Muratov said.
Well, that's comforting
Syria investigation
The incident comes as three NGOs filed a lawsuit on Monday against Russian mercenary group Wagner over the torture and killing of a detainee in Syria. Muratov noted in the statement that the case was "based on our articles".

In 2019, Novaya Gazeta published an investigation into the assassination. Images showed Russian-speaking men hitting their victim with a hammer and then dismembering him, eventually spraying him with gasoline and setting his body on fire.

The newspaper also published on Monday an investigation into abuses committed in Chechnya. The autonomous republic in the Caucasus region is run by authoritarian leader Ramzan Kadyrov.

#1  Piss off Putin and he gives you the jab. And the jab isn't a vaccine it's a neurotoxin designed to kill you in seconds. The Chinese decided to kill us all with a slower acting pathogen called covid19. They may have succeeded. We'll see.
