An occupation court in Russia's Zaporizhzhia Oblast sentenced retired Melitopol journalist Iryna Levchenko to 15 years in a penal colony on espionage charges. Levchenko, who had been in Russian captivity for more than three years, was convicted under Article 276 of the Russian Criminal Code after a closed trial whose substantive allegations Ukrainian sources describe as fabricated.
