Russia Drops Criminal Case Against Charity Head Moniava

Russian authorities have dropped the criminal case against Lidya Moniava, head of the 'Dom s Mayakom' foundation, who was charged under the fake news law for statements about the Russian Armed Forces. The case was dropped by the investigator, according to her lawyer. This is a notable reversal in Russia's enforcement of wartime censorship laws, though the broader pattern of such prosecutions continues.
