  1. During a repatriation operation on 29 November, the Russian party did not return to Ukraine the body of Ukrainian journalist Viktoria Roshchyna, who died in Russian captivity in early October.

    **Details:** Suspilne did not provide a comment from the Coordination Headquarters, but a source from Ukrainska Pravda confirmed that the Russians did not return Roshchyna’s body.

  2. IMO it’ll be be because we’ll find evidence of horrific torture.

  3. It’s heartbreaking:

    > In the past five years, aside from Roshchyna, we have documented 64 cases of female journalists being detained by Russia, either within the country or in occupied territories. Since 2022, 11 have been abducted, many of them from their homes.
