Additional information:

Ukrainian journalist Roman Tsymbalyuk has left Russia due to a threat to his personal safety. Tsimbalyuk worked in Moscow for 13 years for the agency UNIAN. «I left the Russian Federation because I believe there is a threat to my personal safety. The Russian junta seems to have shown itself. And now they are allegedly saying that they have withdrawn the summons for questioning, but that doesn’t mean it won’t happen again. Before that, there were also many signals that they «took the last Ukrainian reporter in Moscow very, very seriously», — Tsymbalyuk said in an interview with Hromadske.
