Anna Politkovskaya


     Known for her series of reports condemning the Chechnya war and human rights violations in Chechnya, the journalist Anna Politkovskaya has become a symbol of courage in the hearts of the Russian people.
   
     In 2006, she was assassinated in her own home, and the case has not been clarified. Her death caused a wave of outrage not only in Russia but also throughout the world. After her death,
an organization "Reach all Women in War" - a human rights organization focused on preventing violence against women in war and conflict - created the "Anna Politkovskaya Prize", to honor the human rights activists, like Politkovskaya.

“People sometimes pay with their lives for saying aloud what they think. In fact, one can even get killed for giving me information. I am not the only one in danger. I have examples that prove it.”
Anna Politkovskaya
