Anna Politkovskaya, a renowned Russian investigative journalist, gained recognition for her extensive reporting on political and social events in Russia, notably during the Second Chechen War. Despite encountering intimidation and violence, she dedicated seven years to covering the war. Her articles focusing on Chechnya were adapted into books multiple times, primarily published in Novaya Gazeta. Politkovskaya’s investigative journalism garnered international acclaim, and she authored the book “Putin’s Russia” in 2004. Tragically, her assassination in 2006 drew significant international attention.
