CONFIRMED: Kidnapped Russian journalist Anna Kurbatova is being held by Ukrainian regime–to be forcibly deported

Her condition remains unknown.

The interior ministry of the Kiev regime has confirmed it has kidnapped  Russian journalist Anna Kurbatova and is currently holding her at an undisclosed location near Kiev.

Kurbatova who reports for Russia’s Channel One is to be forcibly deported from Ukraine and banned from future re-entry to the country for three years. British journalist Graham Phillips faced a similar ban when he was apprehended by regime forces in Donbass in 2014. His ban has expired this year, although it is not clear if he intends to continue reporting from the regime’s territory.

According to Olena Gitlyanska, a spokesperson for the regime’s security service SBU,

“The Russian propagandist Anna Kurbatova will be forcibly returned to Russia.

At the moment, the necessary documents are being processed for her official deportation. It will be the same with anyone who allows themselves to discredit Ukraine”.

The regime has refused to give details on Kurbatova’s condition in spite of both Reuters and Sputnik making enquiries.

The Russian Embassy in Kiev has raised the issue with the regime in the hopes of obtaining a resolution to the illegal hostage situation.

Earlier today, a crew reporting for Russia-24 were fired upon by regime forces while making reportage near Donetsk.

I think “Hitlyanska” is better transliteration of it.

The former The Ukraine, now Nulandistan, is a nation standing around, waiting to be insulted.
The ethics and morals of the Zionism-ridden ghetto of Israel and the drug-plagued Black ghettos of the USA have combined to sink this CIA/USSD experiment in nation-building to a level unseen anywhere off the Island of Dr Moreau.
The US spreads not Democracy but Idiocracy (see the movie btw).

Five years ago I actually wanted to go and visit this country. Now a friend of mine with a Ukrainian girlfriend has spent thousands trying to find a way to get her out and bring her to Australia. It’s sad, but since the U.$. has turned up there, this country has been ripped apart. Now it’s broke, controlled by Nazi’s, has the shortest expected life span of any European country, is rife with corruption and crime; and practically all its industry is controlled by Oligarchs or U.$. Politicians and their business interests. No other country on the planet has experiences… Read more »

Unfortunately, Canada opened wide her arms to Ukrainian war criminals, after the war.

The outright depravity and disrespect for human rights seems to have no bounds in this failed state of Ukraine. They can’t even tolerate views or reports that contradict their narrow minded false narrative. The US and it’s NATO/EU vassals are entirely to blame for this state of affairs.

Horrific what lengths this bunch of primitive heathens will go to– but boy, oh boy, if only they knew how fast they’re running out of rope!! Main thing for now, is that Anna Kurbatova gets back home safely and unharmed.

“British journalist Graham Phillips faced a similar ban”

Without his reporting, people in the West would have never known what happened in Donbass in the 2014-2015 period.
Hats off to Graham Phillips.
